Bob,
Forget trying to convince these boys that electric is easier, especially in the cold. I have been trying for a long time now, and it just doesn't work.

I have 3 Twists, a .60 size electric, a .61 OS, and a .46 evolution. I love them all for different reasons. I will side in with you that electric is great in the winter. I leave the wings on so all I have to do is hop out of the warm truck and take off. Never take the gloves off. When I am done, no cleaning. It is great.
I brought all electrics out on Saturday because it was pretty cold. I just built a new Extreme Flight Yak, so I maidened that and flew a bunch of flights. I have 4 battery packs for that one, so I can fly non stop all day with that one if want! (na na na na boo boo Down). I also flew my Twist 1 flight, and my T-Rex heli 2 flights. No clean up needed. Threw them all in the back of my truck in one piece, and broke them down in my warm garage.
Gonna be warm this weekend, so out come the glow models! Glow is still my favorite, but electric is awesome. Electric actually is easier to 3D and has many great performance benefits. Instant throttle reaction, and no dead sticks. Glow is noisy and smelly, and you just can't beat that in my book. I am torn.[sm=spinnyeyes.gif]
