Default Anybody Flying the Modeltech Magic

Terror Dactyl :

I am building a Magic right now and let me say that the Magnum 4 stroke would be a blast.

People see a .61 and think that this is a 20 oz engine, but it is actually 15.5 oz which is lighter than it's 15.8 oz TT Pro .46 cousin!

I have one on a Morris Knife and really love it. The engine get's stronger every time I fly it and does not flame out. $149.00 at Hobby People is a great deal.

Now, that being said, since the Magnum is on my Knife, I have to buy an engine for my Magic and I think I'm going with the TT Pro 36. I agree with XP8103a that light is better, so an 11oz engine is much better than a 15oz one.

No problems with pulling the plane up out of a hover with the TT anyway.

If you get the Magnum, you will love it for sure.
