tIANci, Elec vs. glow is hard to read right now. I just don't have enough time on the elec. I have a few glow planes with power to weight equal if not better then this elec. I have noticed in a hover the throttle needs less work on the elec. I find myself working the throttle on the Saito and setting and forgeting on the elec. With only three flight on the elec most of the differences I have noticed are on the flight line. I can see were the ease of assembly is much easier. Also the amount of stuff taken to the field is about half. Not to mention at the end of the session your done. No cleaning, no burning the fuel out, no after run, no mess and smell on your hands. All these things are a big plus.

Dashunde, you have been a great help and I know you will be in the future. When I say this stuff baffles me I think it's the little stuff. I have been flying glow for 20 years. (this may sound like bragging,sorry) But I am the guy in the club that people look too when they can't tune their engine or wonder what prop would work best with this combo or cant get their plane to do this manuver etc..etc.. I also do 95% of the test flights in our club. So for me to know sh*t about the props,ESC and motors is a little tough for me to swallow at times. For example on the balancer I got to charge the batteries. I tried to read and understand the book. I have read it twice and still don't follow the logic. I can make it charge the battery packs but it will do so much more and I cant run it. When I get time I am going to bring it in the house and ask you a few questions. For now it charges and I am content with that. I think being dislexic and having a LD is coming back to bite me in the a**.
