I have some time on my friends Magic. It will do just about everything, and it is very small and easy to transport. Great for those quick flights you are talking about. If you are looking to do pattern type flying this is probably not the plane for you. It is very tough to knife edge. It can be done, but there's almost no side area to the fuse. If you want to have a plane to toss around in a relatively small area the Magic will excell.
