Does the gasser work on normal petrol we use for automobiles?

Need a trainer with a gasser engine
Can somebody list the frame and the engine(preferably from HK or with similar competitive price) SPEC.

Since you want a petrol engine as a trainer, i assume that the non-availability of methanol in kerala is the main issue.
A 26cc petrol bird may not be the ideal choice for an absolute beginner. start of on electrics in glow fuel is a problem. then go for petrol.
yes a gasser works on regular petrol with 2 T oil.

We have had good success with the RCGF engines (sold through HK or direct from the manufacturer). You can put the RCGF 15cc on a .60 size plane.

A DLE would be a better long term investment, and I think there is a DLE 20 available these days, which can go on a .90 size plane. 

No point in getting the ARF airframe from outside, there are multiple good options locally.

I would strongly suggest using glow though, as the fuel is now easily available shipped into Kerala.
