Its very easy to do this... just find where your antenna wire comes out and attach and wrap copper wire all the way to the top... this gives you like triple the range!!! XP

It should help you with the rocket car... it not then you might want to weld <or somtin> a longer antanna to your car then wrap it lol! XP



that is true though... maybe you could make it curve out and around the rocket... i dunno... lol

If you go out of range that fast, you'll have to modify more than just the antenna. Jshwaa does a mod for $10 +shipping of your transmitter that supposedly increases range 450%+

i think the thing wrapped in green is the antenna
is that this whole copper wire thing?

my civic has a range of about 200ft all i did to it was put an antenna on it that is hold on...14inches long
i drove the car during the day Walmarts parking lot in b4 i moved to VA
he jogged along side it for the following reasons
1. to make sure that it didn't fall into a drain
2. get run over
3. so i could see how small he got
4. the car went past my sight so when he stopped i knew the car wasn't acting right anymore

i was really impressed that the longer antenna did that much but it owrks great

so 14inch antenna wire with works GREAT
