Anything is better then electric! LOL Flys nice for the maiden.
Let me get this straight: you take a perfectly good helicopter and convert it to something that is noisy, smelly and oily? It must be some form of drug abuse.
LOL, nice one Tarek.

Not really I can post like about 50 videos of electrics going up in Flames like ESC and especially lipos just frying the helis on Impact, it has become more and more in the last months. Not even talking about houses burning down lmao. I still have to see a Nitro go up in flames on Impact. Noisy is fun if you know how to handle engines. Everybody can plug and fly. Lol hey this is only my opinion so don't take it serious, I just like making fun of this subject. Keeps the forum moving. But since we are man it's all about Power and piss... Contest so if you are into that, go electric, they have like double the power of nitros. Oh yes and if you have the funds at hand of cours.

So I guess not only gas guys needs a fire extinguisher but the electron guys too:rolleyes:

Kevin you forgott the turbines, they always need a extinguisher too. Soon the electric guys will burn as much fuel as if they flew nitro! Why?? Because they all will have to bring generators to the field to get through a day of flying and the car batteries cannot handle the amp draws of todays lipos and chargers lol, so now you have to buy a Generator to fly!!!LMAO!

Not a bad idea... Hmmmm.... let's see, how much a reasonable power generator?
And we can have an oven to make pizza, right Mike?

We could use them to heat the shed in winter! All is good and if like 10 of them are running we could just hock them up to sockets so everybody can use them. Awesome go electric!
