My magic is the first fun fly airplane I have owned. And let me tell you it has been a great 3-D trainer, best $100 bucks I have every spent in model aviation! If you burn enough gas you can get the magic to do any thing you want with the proper set-up! I'm running a .46Fx/mac's exhaust with a 11.5X4 APC prop,std servo's,6v 720 mah Ni-Mh battery pack and it a great 3-D trainer. That's just my opinion. Ricky
