Dave, try cutting some weight down by losing those motor cowls
and get a carbon fiber rod for the fuselage. Just don't attach the
antenna wire to the rod because it will cause interference.
It also looks like it might be tail heavy. Make it a puller prop and
attach the lipo at the nose. The CG should be 1/3 from the wings
leading edge. I'd also cut the tail down to reduce getting caught
flying in a circle you can't pull out of... and cut some stabalizer flaps.
It should fly.
