Default converting modeltech magic

I've decided to get rid of the glow. I fly off my back porch over a golf course and quite electrics just seem more logical. I'm trying to go the cheap china route. But I can't decide between the monster power .32 or .46, I know a lot of people have used .32 nitro engines for the magic, but I'm still skeptical of the electrics putting out the same amount of oomph. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Default RE: converting modeltech magic

I have flown my Magic on a geared Aveox 1010/2y and a DD Phasor 45/3. The Magic isn't designed to be a fast plane, you want something that will swing a large prop slowly. Given your stated options, I'd go with the 46 with a low cell count and a big diameter, low pitch prop.
