I think because you dont hav to run every time to charge your batteries ....on nitro just refuel and fly

Beyond a certain size & weight, electric becomes expensive, and very heavy. It is here that the optimum solution lies in nitro.

Of course, you have to consider many other factors, like a suitable field for Nitro.

You could try this motor with a 10*6 prop, and a 2200 mAh if you keep the AUW up to 1.4 Kg

with glow, you can just fill the fuel and ready to fly again almost instantly. So more flying in field.
There are several other factors.
The most facinating of the glow engine than electric, to me, is the sound.
And if you have no glow, your aeromodeling is incomplete...
We have to unite and to prove ourself to make indigenous products as well as marketing / Canvasing them. I'm sure we must achieve success if we try unitedly.

Hello Aniket
Please tell where did you get the balsa you've used in your build.

@aniket1955,
Hope you won't mind some suggestions.
1. Starboard wing top D tube sheeting has a joint between bay 1 and 2. This is a strict no-no. The wing depends on the D tube for its folding strength. The sheet should be continuous from centre to tip. As it will be impossible to change the sheeting now, please put a thin fibreglass patch on the top sheeting say 1 inch to both sides of rib no.2. (Before covering)
2. Centre bays bottom sheeting grain is chordwise. Will it provide any strength against bending?  It should be spanwise.
3. Also saw a patch in the centre section sheeting. Pl avoid such patches. The sheeting is not just to cover the holes, its meant to provide stiffness against bending and torsional load. Joints defeat this purpose.

Hope you find this useful for your next build. Meanwhile best of luck. Dont forget the fibreglass patch!

Edit: Just in case you have not come across the term D tube, look at the cross section of the wing. The top and bottom sheeting, along with the spars and webbing form a D shaped tube that is surprisingly strong. And what is webbing? The vertical grain sheet pieces fitted between the spars in each bay between adjacent ribs. Pl excuse if you already know all this stuff. Only trying to help.

I have not seen Das Ugly Stick kit in RCB. I do see the "Stick" with a normal (not round) Vertical Stab and non-crennelated 'rons
