I am using a Mega 22-20-2 with 6-1 gear ratio and a 15/10 prop on my MagicE. Power comes from a Thunder Power 5S4P LiPo pack. Another difference is that I added a tailwheel. Gotta be able to drive it on the ground! We have a really nice concrete runway/taxiway and the wire skid wore off after about a month of use.

My flight times and performance are very comparable to yours. The local glow fliers stand there with their mouthes wide open when I jump off the ground and go straight up for 200 - 300 feet, with no trouble at all. It climbs faster than any of the glow airplanes around this area!

I can't seem to get mine to spin or snap however. Where do you have the cg on yours?

Later;
