E-Flite F16 w. Hoffman Magnetics Motor and Alpha EDF

E-Flite F-16 DF 400 with Hoffman Magnetics (Mighty Mite) Motor. I Ended replacing the stock motor because it didn't produce enough thrust to go vertical, this time I barely got off the ground, but I did make it, unlike the last time. The Flight was relatively un-eventfull, and unlike last time I did make it back on to the ground where it rolled into a hole in the ground and tipped over, dislodging the hatch and no other damage.

Esc is set up wrong you need faster timing, get a Castle creations controller and i bet it will go a good 20% faster.

@pmikey666 That's funny since it had a Phoenix 80 in it, set to the manufacturer's (motor) specs...

What I find Wierd is myn flys better than that on the stock motor although i took off on the sidewalkn instead of dirt, If you find a motor/esc/bat that works well let me know because by no means am i saying the stock setup has enough power it just seemed like myn flew a little better than that
