I have a modeltech simply magic which is virtually the same as the magic extra. I got this plane because my LHS took too long to order a twist. I had a 40 trainer before this and they do fly differently and it took me a couple of flights to get used to it. but after that its a great plane. i haven't had any trouble thus far and i have about 10 flights on it. i became so comfortable with it so fast that on about the 3rd or 4th flight i was doing rolls, loops, inverted passes, and really low high-speed fly-bys. once trimmed out it will fly perfectly strait. i have a magnum .52 and a 12.25 x 3.75 prop and it seems perfect. my friend has a magic extra with the same engine but said he was going to switch to this prop because of the way mine flys.

my twist actually came in yesterday (after about 3 months from hobbytown) and i may go and buy it just to have an extra and compare the two. i'll let yakow how it goes.
