I found out the problem why the plane was performing so poorly. It was a cheep battery, it sucks only 25A. I put in a Sky Lipo from Hobbypartz and I now see 45A and way less battery voltage drop. Will be flying with new battery real soon and posting video.

Thanks for the comment, The motor was a Park400 1350KV and I am using a cheep battery from EBay 5000mAh. The CG was 115mm (I think) whatever the manual said. The plane was badly out of trim and the second flight was much better. But, I still think it flew like a brick :) I bought a Turnigy motor when I bought the plane and I have since put that motor back on, but have not flown since. Maybe I will think more of it once I fly again.

Randy, interesting video. What motor and battery did you use? Where was the CG?
