I started with gas and now having done electric I think electric is much easier to trouble shoot and keep running at its peek ( no carb adjustments etc.). Also you can tweak your setup and runnig gear at your kitchen table or shop bench. Try firing up a nitro anywheres but outside and see how long before you get overcome with fumes :036: . Performance is also better, these brushless beasts just flat get up and go when you hit the throttle. Also with my new lipo setup I can get 20+ minutes of runtime and that's with it geared to hit the 40mph mark. Like avery4jc said "run what ya like" but me personnaly having played with both I would never go back to nitro. One last thing is staying in the good graces of your negihbors if your so inclined to do that. :027:
