RE: In a Club of both
Who can predict the future? When I got back into R/C a few years ago, I thought Electric!!, why, it's too expensive! However, the lack of fuel seeping through your airplane's inerds, destroying the finish you worked so hard on, easy quick clean-up (none), the lack of constant and harsh vibrations from the engine makes it easy for me to see electric airplanes having a new; but, sustaining place in my aircraft inventory. I'm not ready to give up on glow and am working on a 1/4 scale Balsa USA Nieuport 28 which will be my first gasoline powered airplane. I look upon it as another facet of this hobby. I'm fine with it not being attractive to everyone!
I'm more concerned about the dwindling kit suppliers than anything! Building is the most fun, to me!
