I sure hope I'm not nerving y'all with my silly beginner questions, but here
it goes: For a 90-size heli, should I go with a 90 glow engine or a gasoline
engine? I'm living far from any hobby shop, so getting methanol fuel would
have to be by UPS or something. Not sure if that is a problem. Also, from my
experience of many many MANY years back, a glow engine seemed to be always a
bit of a pain to start and keep running. A gas engine has a small carb and
seemed easier to start and run. Any input from today's technology viewpoint?
Thanks,
Harald
