RE: Is it Electric really worth the trouble ?
Electrics have now reached performance levels that are equal to glow. With the power systems available and multitude of props available you can get a very similar feel. I talked to QQ this winter about this and he said he was able to get an almost identical feel flying electric now and because of his job change he had an electric only flying field that he could easily slip out to during the day and get a few flights in. Otherwise he would drive after work and with his kids getting older he wanted to spend more time at home. He said at that time he truly felt that the electrics were now on an equal playing field to glow. They still have some limitations such as shorter flight times and such, but from a competitive standpoint to just put up a competition flight they are equal now.
