Honestly between the twist and the magic Id say the twist all the way, the twist is awsome for learning how to hover and mine is rugged as hell, i run a 46AX on mine and she only weighs 4lbs 5oz's dry, my AX with the 12 1/4 x 3 3/4 apc puts out 7lbs of thrust running on 15% omega.
I will say a profile is your best bet for learning any type of 3D, and there are tons to choose from, I personaly like the OMP Katanas
and the Accel hobbys Katanas, the carl goldberg edge 540 profile is an awsome hovering plane but not as light as other profiles.

Good luck with your search.
