Oh yeah, one other item, for you new magic owners, or guys assembling one. GO OVER THE ENTIRE PLANE WITH A MONOKOTE IRON. The covering will lift up over time. And its really LOW temp stuff.

Hi all,
My magic is in transit from Tower as of this morning. I've been looking for the electronic manual but can't seem to find it. Is there a PDF out there? If so, someone post a link.
TIA.

Don't know of a PDF manual for the Magic.
There's really not that much too it. The plane goes together just about exactly like every other ARF I've had.
The worst problem about the instructions is the fuel tank instructions are written backwards. But you really don't need them anyway.

WOW!!!
Thanks for all the input! I have decided to put a servo on the side of the fuse back by the tail for the elevator (not the rudder like Coulter did, great idea tho). This will allow me to use the pull-pull tail wheel back to the rudder servo as I did in my first magic. Since I'm using a YS 53, (which was the best out of 4 engines I had on my first one and I'm at 5000ft.) I'm going to put the tank in the servo bay then in front of that a mini servo for the throttle. Where the tank was, I will mount my switch/charge jack on top of the fuse (so I can see if the plane is shut off) and my receiver in place of the tank. I will use a small 720 mah NiMH placed behind the rudder servo with a trap-door under the plane for access. My CG should be close. Then, should I bolt the wing? You made some good points about rubber bands tho?
Again thanks for all the great reading!!!!!!
