I got curious, and looked it up Youtube. What kinda plane did you use? What's the max flight time for Nitro?

I didn't fly this year, just took pics and worked as a crew member. In 2016 I flew a P-51 Mustang. With a nitro engine you can usually get between 5 and $15 minutes. 2 Stroke gasoline engine is the best engine as far as cost. Nitro is expensive. And well batteries are a bit "greener".

It's the same problem with rc boats. Not enough running time. At least with boats, you think they would have enough room for a large gas tank. They need to make something that last at least 20 minutes.
