hey guys its been a long time since ie posted here, back in the day i used to go by crazychris46dividedby2. anyways, i just recently got one of the new air hogs jet set planes. i noticed upon flying it the first time that the range on it is horrible. any new ways of boosting range other than making the antenna on the plane longer? my second and main question is that i dont like the stock plane so much, and being the tinkerer that i am i want to build something different out of it. what i want to make is something that flies rather slow, kinda like the aero ace bipes from back in the day. for a building material all i have at my disposal is foam board so i want to build it out of that. if you have any ideas or suggestions for a good slow flying but stable bipe please reply. thanks

Chris, if I could find a bipe I might buy one, but these parkzone micros fit the bill so well. And I am thinking of ordering a new plane for $20 since I have the gear on hand.
