Before the cost of building a nitro vs electric was roughly the same, the electric required more initial investment, but the nitro's upkeep costs (fuel, glow plugs, etc) eventually makes nitro cost more. Plus brushless motors last a LONG time. Now that nitro has doubled it really makes the case to convert to electric.

I will miss the noise ofa screaming 2 stroke engine, but other than that there isn't much about nitro i'll miss.
