ELECTRIC vs GLOW ENGINES POWER
Keep a look to this info :
(http://www.wattflyer.com/forums)
One of the biggest confusions for most people selecting an electric motor is, “What is a watt?” The glow guys are used to horsepower and electric power systems are measured in watts.
Don't go by the max rating for HP that engine manufacturers publish. That is a MAX figure and very seldom is an engine for sport use operated at that figure. The h.p. drops off quite a bit when the RPM is not at the rated figure which is usually around 16,000 RPM’s or greater.

(1 hp = 746 watts or about 750 watts)

Glow Engines vs. Electric Motors
- ♠ .20-size glow engine / 300w electric motor
- ♠ (OS Max 0.20 engine develops 0.4 hp = 300w electric motor (AXI 2820) )
- ♠ .35-size glow engine / 500w electric motor
- ♠ (Fox 0.35 stunt engine develops 0.7 hp = 522w electric motor)(AXI 2826)
- ♠ .40-size glow engine develops 1.0 hp = 750w electric motor (AXI 2826 or 4120)
- ♠ .60-size glow engine develops 1.3 hp = 975w electric motor (AXI 4120 or 4130)
- ♠ .90-size glow engine develops 1.6 hp = 1200w electric motor (AXI 5320 or 4130)
- ♠ 1.20-size glow engine develops 3.0 hp = 2250w electric motor (AXI 5330)
- ♠ DA-50 develops 5.0 hp = 3750w electric motor (AXI 5330)
- ♠ DA-100 develops 9.8 hp = 7311w electric motor (Double AXI 5330)

LEARN FROM CLIPS
Youtube services made us know about anything video based clips in internet.
Many pilots has been documented their own landing scene.
We can learn from them, practising in FS and... have some fun !!
