WANTED gas rc plane

Unread post by MGC » Tue Jul 11, 2023 8:29 am

Hi folks. I've been flying electric for a number of years now but have always wanted to explore the world of gas powered planes. I'm wondering if anyone has one they might be looking to sell? This is a new part of the hobby for me so I'm not looking for an engine that requires immediate repair or the classic "worked last time i used it but its been sitting for years". LoL Must be in good working order.

Thanks! :D

Cool! Another supplementary chapter...! Something small or large - or is there a preference?

I was up to check out Warbirds over the Atlantic in Truro this past weekend. What a fantastic time. Beautiful airplanes and amazing pilots! I was chatting with a gentleman that had a nice size gas powered p47. Looked to be about 1.5 m wing so could still easily put it in the car with the wings removed. Something in that size would be perfect. Here are a few photos from the event.

Maybe a turbine is in your future? Making the necessary steps ;-)

Hey, I have saw quite a few gas/nitro planes available on FaceBook Market page. Not junk either.

Cheers

HI, would you post a little more information on the type of plane you are looking for , are you looking for gas (DLE) or glow (2stroke or 4 stoke ) , are you looking for war plane like the p47 , are you looking for a trainer style glow plane or gas plane ect maybe the size ....

also keep in mind , if you are looking to get a glow plane you may have to order fuel at some point , no one local is stocking fuel , you would have to order a case or split a case with someone local , early this summer for example a few people went to PEI and came back with fuel , some people worked together and split cases
