It won't be the "nitro" class if you eventually go to this new petrol engine (once the issues are worked out). R/C evolves and eventually this might be the next evolution of the hobby. Think about spending $6-$7 for a couple of gallons of gas and a $2 bottle of 2-stroke oil instead of $20-$35 (depending on where you live and what your LHS sells nitro fuel) for a gallon of nitro fuel. Oh, also removing the cost of a glow igniter (if this engine works the same as a 5th scale engine).
