i see the list but the rtf are $200.00 and over are electric ones fairly ceaper cause im brand new never flown a rc plane in my life and would hate to cras and lose it

Electric costs just a bit more overall. Motors can be less, but take pretty expensive batteries. And chargers for them are pricey. But you never have to buy fuel, just the electricity and time to recharge the batteries.

Nitro is one name for glow fuel. Glow fuel is a mix of lube, alcohol and nitromethane. So we call it nitro sometimes. Heck, some call it gas. And guess what..... we have gasoline engines too. That run on gas.
