Default why can't they?

Why can't they produce an extremely powerful gasoline engine that can rival the power of glow engine? Cars use gasoline, and there are different horsepowered cars, why can't they do the same for heli?

How about a HANSON modified Zenoah with a tuned exhaust. I have three of these over the years. Still own one. There is not a glow engine I've seen flown that can hold a candle to the lifting power of this beast..... Were looking at 4hp with this combination... I am quite sure more power could be had with additional mods.

You're using a Hanson tune pipe? How long is it is it heavy?
