I have a magic w/tt36 (11/3 or 11/4 APC) heli motor on the nose, have flown a full blown pizazz with an os70 surpass (13/4 or 14/4 APC) on the nose (two elevator servos split into tailerons, ailevators, whatever you want to call them). Its like comparing apples to oranges. The magic has a very hard time doing knifeedge, the coupling is very severe. This also limits your range on TRs, really narrows the window of error. It will fall out to the side very easily. It's still an absolute blast. Loops in a fuselength, waterfalls, spins, blenders, etc. It's also as close to a disposable plane as you can get. The pizazz is capable of more than just funfly maneuvers. It will do a respectable rolling circle, harrier rolls, 4pt rolls, etc, and knifeedge loops. There is just more fuse area to pull it around on edge. With the big thick wing and its midfuse placement, the pizazz is just as happy inverted as it is upright. We've only had one top cap at our field, and the only reason it didnt fly well was the builder/pilot. All three are great airframes, depending on what youre wanting to do. The magic is most likely going to get you up in the air the cheapest, but the pizazz or topcap is going to be more versitile.
