i see lots of people converting their gassers to electrics when i would've expected the opposite to happen. what are the reasons for going from gas to electric?


personally, i've wanted to own a gas powered rc for a looong time. now that i've finally got one, i can't see myself swapping it for an electric any time soon. :)
 
For some its noise. For others it's the extreme torque and power you can achieve from the electrics.

Personally I love the gassers.
 
The electrics are the undisputed king of the hill,to go fast instantly and have reverse and wheelies.However for me its gas I don't care how fast the electrics are. The cats meow would be a gas 4wd that will wheelie.
 
I love the way the xbe but there is nothing like the smell of gasoline in the mornig the electrics are too quiet for me i may get one in the future so far i have 2 savages and the Mt and Xb i may get a baja too but gasoline baby gasoline.
 
I like gas but electric is a close second especially now that brushless has exploded onto the scene. Gas is noisy and wide open space are needed but I live in the country were it isn't a big deal. In the city I can see why electric would work better especially space wise.

@ Ol' fart a variation of a dirtbike clutch that would fit our engines might work... maybe :)
 
I have always ran nitros when I got into the hobby and then I got the mt and I can honestly say I am never going to electrics I just live the sound and the maintenance involved it makes it feel like the real thing not a toy
 
yeah, i'm just waiting for the day someone develops a better gasser clutch so we can see what they're truly capable of.
