Tigerdude,
Yes that is what a range test is. But looking at your pictures from your build thread you show the receiver antenna coiled up, if that's the case then 10' will be just about as far away that you can get. When you do a range test you should have the receiver antenna FULLY EXTENDED. With the receiver antenna fully extended then you should be able to get ~100' away from the plane and still control it with the transmitter antenna collapsed.

Ken, wrong plane. Picture is of the Tower trainer. Problem is the LT-40. Good point though.
