What are the pros and cons of a nitro r/c plane engine versus an electric?
Please help. I’m trying to find a good quality r/c plane under $150. I do not know if I should buy a plane with a nitro engine or an electric engine. Thank you.
Ive always been a massive fan of nitro engines. but recently changed to electric.
its so much cheaper in the long run, there is no mess to clean up, no messing arround with engine problems which you will get from small r/c engines and its much safer. starting an engine is dangerious and ive know people to loose fingers from this. ive had a few close shaves myself.
As long as you have a decent charger you can charge a spare battery in the time it taks you to run the other flat, just wack it on a car battery.
Only downside is you dont get that awsome noise you get from nitro.
Hope this helps

While this slogan pampered its Boston Brahmin and Wall Street commuting clientele, it hardly defined the NYNH&H. A Great Railroad at Work, sponsored by the New Haven in 1942, shows the railroad as a brawny, fleet footed freight and passenger system that combined class with clockwork service. It also … |
