There are pros and cons to both! Nitro well its just nitro. Electric is quiet so its neighbor hood freindly, no tuning to weather conditions, No added running costs once you have your batteries and chargers! Everyone has a difference of opinion nitro guys have a stronger opinion because e-guys dont have to work real hard o have fun! The funny thing is back in the early 90's when nitro started hitting the scenes really hard it was really too loud and nitro guys complained about run times and charging times!
