I have a Magic Extra with a TT54 in it swinging a hover prop it flys great and lands ever so softly.If you do purchase one though you should as mentioned seal all the covering seams as its true the covering will peel.Also beef up the fuse with some small ply gussets up the front where the wing seats, as its prone to break the fuse in half if not and landed hard.Set your cg up slightly tail heavy not as they say in the instructions,you will also need some weight in the nose,use those stick on wheel weights.Mine fly inverted hands off and lands like a dream, it can be flown very slowly or very wild your choice.Another option is a Morris The Knife,they are great it was my second plane its a little ripper and very forgiving it will teach you so much.Easily built and easy to repair if you stick it in the dirt.Mine has a Enya 53 on it and it will perform any trick in the book.Best of luck..
