So looking for some advice on what to pick up for my first RTA. Currently running nautilus Mini on an istick 20W, so I know I can't go sub ohm build. I'm looking for something with better flavor at higher wattage and more vapor production. Not a cloud chaser but the vapes feel thin to me on the nautilus.

Hello Jaz and welcome to ECF, i would suggest for your first RTA a Lemo or a Kayfun, there is also the UD Goblin, i have a few of all 3, now i like the goblin the best of all of them how ever it is a little tougher to build on as the deck is smaller, building on RTA's can be a bit of a pain in the .... at first but once you get used to it like all things you will do good, good luck and Happy Vaping 
Start on single coil RTAs like a Kayfun, Taifun, or Lemo. Once you get coil building down then move onto dual coils like the Goblin. Be warned though, once you go dual coil its difficult to go back to single coils.
Was honestly thinking starting dual coil anyhow and either the goblin or goliath.
No I havent and that is one thing about the goliath I like where I can slow the juice burn some with the control
Honestly thinking you should go with the kanger subtank mini or full size. It comes with a 1.2 ohm coil head for non sub ohm mods and it also comes with a .5 ohm coil head just in case you decide to upgrade to the istick 30 watt or any sub ohm mod. But also has the RTA Section of course so you can build your coils to your liking which is what i suppose you want to do. This tank doesn't only make bangin flavor but makes clouds as well so your getting the best of both worlds!!!
Both the Goblin and the Goliath are for cloud chucking. If you turn the juice flow down too much on the Goliath I think it will cause dry hits...unless of course you go at low watts. Kind of defeats the purpose in my opinion. If juice conservation is your goal stick to single coils.
The Orchid series are also cheap reliable dual coil RTAs with less juice consumption than the Goblin or Goliath.

Hi Jaxs, methinks that you'll be happy going with something like a Kayfun lite.
Yeah it a single coil, though it vapes bout as good as a dual coil.
I mainly use a Orchid V4, batteries dont last as long as in whem Im using my Orchid.
Juice last longer, taiste is bout the same.
Kayfuns you can run it at 15watss at 2.2 ohms.
Orchids .8 ohms at 22 watts.
I bought four more Kayfun lites last night, won them in a auction.
It a hobby thingy I got going that got out of hand lol.
Got more 28g wire on the way.
Got a few friends that I may hook up.
Many options out there, try a kayfun.

Good, single coil flavor RTAs that work well with the istick 20W:
Lemo
Taifun
SquapeR
eXpromizer
Rose v2, but more difficult to build
And my new favorite, which looks great on the istick: EHPro Mini Buddha. Easy build, inexpensive, conservative on juice and good flavor. Vividsmoke carries them. They come in silver, black, red and purple.

Definitely looking for glass or metal for the tank, also I know this will sound bad, but I don't want to go and spend more than say $60 on a rta and not know how I will like it.
From what everyone is saying sounds like the lemo 2, goblin, or goliath are going to be some of the better choices

I vote for the Lemo. Easy to build on, glass tank, large juice capacity, plenty of airflow, no-tool refilling, doesn't leak (at least mine never has), inexpensive...I could go on and on. I prefer it over my dual-coil RTAs. Currently rocking a .9 ohm twisted 28ga build at 32.5 watts and it's just awesome.
The kayfuns usely. Come with a mini & large clear plastic glass.
Also ss section vs using glass.
They do have a mod to where u can use pyrex.

Has anyone here used the nautilus mini and the lemo 2 so that I can figure out if the lemo is going to go through the same amount of juice, more or less. I know my mileage will vary, but a ratio of nautilus to lemo will be helpful in locking it down
The amount of juice used varies based on your coil build, resistance, amount of power being applied, etc. So basically if you build a coil on the Lemo that's the same resistance as a coil in the Nautilus mini, and use the same amount of power to vape it as you would with a mini, then you can expect very similar juice usage rates. If you build a sub-ohm coil and/or crank up the wattage, however, expect to go through substantially more juice.
