Default Nitro or Gas?

Hello,

I have been flying for three years now, I'm considering to step in to large scale models(mainly for pattern and 3D)

I'm thinking of a Yak 54 or Cap or something similar.

I wonder, what source of power would be best for 3D manuvers is it Nitro or Gasoline?

which one givesbetter power-to-weight ratio?

I know that Gasoline are lower in RPM, but hight in tourqe but again heavier in weight. Will that be a disadvantage??

I also know that when it comes to giant models ther only source of power available would be Gasoline, but what about the large scales that accepts both, which one would be best for 3D flying?
