I don't have experience with these both installed in a Mini. However, I do have experence with both of them installed in a TA-05 and the 21.5 is considerably faster. If you use LiPo batteries, the difference is even more drastic. I don't think you would hurt your mini with one of these motors, but don't expect your buddies running silver cans to be able to hang with you.

In the mini, I have experience with the silver can and a middle of the road 27t brushed motor. The silver can is a bit slower than the 27t.

Hope this helps
Andy
