The biggest boost is using Li-Ion power instead, as they weigh much less - get a high-amp-proof Li-Ion pack, a Li-Ion-approved controller (Hackers with BEC are nice) and the smaller motor :-)! Unless it is too light, then by all means the bigger motor - generally, bigger motor = slightly higher efficiency! But higher weight, lower climb, so it isn't sure you win with a bigger motor! Tord PS Aveox with Hacker, rocks :-)! RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
