Agreed. Going crazy on a trainer (like i did) is not the most highly recommended route. Reason I plugged all that in is because I had it on hand and didn't want to spend the cash "matching" a good power plant to the MiniMag. I just tell the GF to keep the power lower then usual and she'll be fine. The nice part is that since it does have some extra juice to it she can fly on windy days when I'm hauling with glow. She's almost ready for her next bird (she's building it now): SIG 4 Star 60. He choice by my suggestion....trust me on this one: She's going tandem for a while on that one.
