I would like to see an Agile 7.2 gasser!!! I love the way my 7.2 flys, and I've been day dreaming see it with a gas motor...like a 300 size RC style motor. 5 minutes goes buy soooo fast! Compared to my 20+ minute gasser flights!

Nitro would be a nice step up! PLEASE!!!

The nitro would need to go on a diet the nitros still don't have the power to push a 12lb machine. Most nitro 90s are 11lbs

I beg to differ…

11 pounds, providing the fuel tank is empty. How much does 14+ ounces of nitro fuel weigh? 90 size motors today are pushing 3.5 hp.

Hello,

I do not think, that a new Nitros makes sence today.

Here in europe they are almost everywhere forbidden.

Elektrik Helis have more power and no noise pollusion.

That depends on where you live.

Without a doubt, electrics have more power. The motors are more efficient. However...electrics demand power from the LiPo packs, and the more power, the less air time you get. 5 minutes, 4 minutes, etc. 1/2 the time a nitro gets per flight.

Ok, so I may not have a 10-15 HP motor for a nitro, but I can fly 10-12 minutes per tank performing 3D with a 2100 rotor speed versus 5 minutes on my electric heli with a 1880 head speed.

Hallo,

Ok, I can really understand that you like Nitros

But the reasons are not efficient. But heli flying is not efficient either

Actually...I like gassers better! Cheaper to run (cost of gas vs. nitro), cleaner running, less mess, and super long flight times! My Trex700G with the Hanson RC300 3D Max motor nets 21 minutes on 16-17 ounces of fuel, and its not fully broken-in yet! A 13.xx pound pig at 1850-1980 head speed.

The one thig I don't care for with electrics...you buy all your flights up front (LiPo packs). If you crash to the point of damaging a LiPo pack or two within the first 50 flights, you just lost all those potential flights.

An agile 7.2 gasser would be pretty sick.
