Default RE: Phase 3 EF - 16

ORIGINAL: kingpin112

I can't decide yet which plane i want to buy, a Phase 3 EF-16 or the Electrifly L-39, both planes looked very good.
As for the F16 i have some Dymond 3S-2250mA 18C lipos weight 191gr, can i use these for the F16 or is it too heavy?

191g on the battery? NO PORBLEM. My 2250 Lightning power 25C packs weigh in at 208g and launches are still very easy. Must make sure you place the battery into a location where the plane balances ok.

edit... (with the lightning power lipo) I flew for 6 minutes yesterday and only had to put 1300mah back in. I did lots of WOT passes and high alt motor off stalls. Gonna go for 8 min tomorrow and see how much power is used up. I like to complete a turn at half throttle and slowly roll it on to wide open throttle 100 yards before the runway. I like the jet way better than my Stryker C.
