*Maiden Flight* E-Flite F-16 Thunderbirds 80mm RC EDF Jet

The Maiden flight did not go exactly how we planned it, but we were still able to get it done! Taking care of Lipos is a must. With the batteries in the jets using more power consistently, the batteries must be monitored. Overall, my initial impression of this jet is that it is an amazing flying jet! I cannot believe that it took off as fast as it did with a 6000mah in there! I have some tweaks to do with the rates on my end. After a few flights, we are confident that she will be 100% dialed in. We are so glad to have it in the hangar. This jet is a winner. We are planning to fly the thunderbird this weekend coming up for you guys and get two flights on one video. We hope that everyone is doing well. Cheers!
