Default RE: Is the Magic REALLY fun to fly?

Here is mine.
somebody ask about the tetherite landing gear. 1st picture has them on

second picture is me getting low with it.

I really like the magic. it will fly as a tame as a trainer or pretty wild. loop and rolls are good will hover with ease. inverted stuff if good to. It a good airplane for $100 bucks and only take 3hrs are so to put together.

The topcap is a good airplane. will do anything you throw at if as long as your fingers are good. the ARf comes out at 5lbs. So its a little heavy. A kit version would be great at 4.5lbs are lighter.

I flew the Extreme flight edge this week. the guys I flew had a irvine .53 and tower muffler on it. but it flew real good. Probably one of the lightest profile ARFs on the market. He said his weighed around 4.5lbs. I really like the way it worked in inverted harriers. also will do anything.

If you want a quick building kit. PaulSwanys burrito is definately a winner. I framed up one is less than 10hrs or work. Flys real nice.
