Default Receiver type

I bought a radio system from TH. It included the Futaba R156F 6-channel micro-receiver. I bought it because I initially built a park flyer to use with the system. Now I am building a .40 sized water plane and would like to use the same receiver in it. Does anyone see a problem with using this receiver? The range is 200m, which I feel would be an adequate distance for this size plane, but I have no experience with them. Any comments?
Thanks.

P.S. The antenna is pretty short too. It was long enough to go from the radio compartment on the PF to the tail, but I don't think it will stretch that lng on this bird. Any suggestions would also be appreciated.
