I have only had to planes (both electric) and am looking for my third. I was wondering if you guys think I should switch to glow planes instead of buying another electric? I've been looking around at them and really like them. Comments/suggestions would be great. Thanks.

Make the switch I started out with electrics. Had about 15 ofem. They were alright but mostly to small and flimsy. A little bit of wind and flying was more a pain then a pleasure. The biggest ones were a 42ws P-51 and the Hobby Lobby Partenavia.
Was wondering about glow power also when i ran across a guy selling a Hobbyco Brightstar complete new in box with a TT46pro slightly used for $75. So i bought it.
Got the sucker put together and by then knew where the flying field was. Had been going it alone before this. Got everything else i needed for glow and off to the field i went. I got the thing fired up and tuned right with a little help. Taxied out and took it up. It only took about 3 seconds and i knew i was hooked on glow. After about 4 or 5 flights the day was done, After about 3 minutes of cleaning up the plane,,And you can just fuel/fly time and again as long as your RX battery holds out.Then quick charge and your up again.
Got home took some pics, made a list and sold every e-power thing i had. E-power is ok for the smaller stuff,But for the size of planes i like 70/90WS glow and gas are the way to go.
When they can make a 4S2P lipo with 10,000 mah for 30C and sell it for under $100 then i might go back to e-power cuz dam those new sound systems sound COOL!

thanks for the reply. i think i may check out some glow planes. anything u might wanna suggest as a first?

You will need to start out with a good trainer. There are a lot available.

Why kinds of electric planes are you flying? Depending on what type you are flying you may need more or less help from an instructor.

You will at least need someone to help you set up your engine and such. However if you are flying some of the radio shack type electric planes you will probably need someone to teach you to fly as they are completely different.

I started with glow and then bought some electric. I wish I hadn't, I much prefer glow power.

I fly both glow and electric (40 size conversions). There are advantages and disadvantages to each.

If you are going to try glow I strongly suggest starting with a trainer and an instructor. MOST glow planes are going to be noticeably faster than electrics (especially park flyers ) and are 4 channel (throttle, ailerons, elevator and rudder ) where many of the electrics are 3 channel. While they require a larger area to fly in, they handle wind MUCH BETTER than many electrics and do to their larger size, are easier to see. While many electrics are hand launched, many (if not most ) 40 size planes are ROG (or ROW if you are into sea planes ).

I started out with a gws slow stik and am currently flying an e-starter (with ailerons). I'll probably get a good trainer. Any suggestions?

There are a bunch of good ones. My fav trainer type plane is a Sig Kadet LT40. Built good,looks good and flies good. What more could ya ask for?
