ya got the v-mar line up of prop jets F-4 phantom, A-4 sky hawk, F5 tiger, F18 hornet or the MIG 21
you might here alot about the craftsmanship of the v-mar, but let me tell ya a guy at our field
has the f-4 and it is awesome, good quality everything. they are around the 300 range
the phoenix f-20 is also a nice jet $150 bucks
But if it were me save up another 95 bucks and go for the cermark f-16 $395 w/ retracts
there is also another thread in here somewhere that lists a whole bunch of jets and who makes them
if I can find It I will.

in the list that phjoker supplied only the Vmar A-4 skyhawk and the Phoenix F20 are 40 - 50 size propjets which would suit your mag 52 of course..... all the others are like 60 - 90 size and most need a 90 size for good performance

How about the Bob cat jet pusher from Nitro models, it's under $200.00, ARF and the reports are grate, check the jet forum for more info.

Good luck.

Thanks for the replies. I really like the king cat pusher and once they are back in stock plan to order one.
