Unhappy super bit char-g?

Well I got my JOTA SVR Lambo today, finally and was a bit disapointed. The telescopic antenna for the TX is about 8 1/2 inches long. I'ts 1/2 the size of a standard Bit/MS whip antenna. This really cuts down on the range. Out of the box I only got about 6' w/o stutters. Luckily, the cars antenna (I believe it's Cat 5) is wound up a bit and once the knot is untied it gave me about 12' of range. The next problem I have with my new "super" bit is that it's chassis is too low. It actually rubs the ground when it's running. I compared it's ground clearance to a MS and a Bit and they've got about 3 mm of clearance at least. My JOTA actually gets hung up on the cracks beween the tiles on my kitchen floor. I'm gonna have to file down some of the chassis to give me some clearance. One thing I surely like is that the deatil of the body is outstanding. I got me a Lambo 500 pullback and it too, is highly detailed. Overall I rate this new "super" bit a 5 on a scale of 10. I took apart the controller to see if I could upgrade it's antenna with a longer one and the PCB is soldered down unlike the old ones that were just screwed down. I'm gonna have to do some serious work on this thing. Please, if you have one of these "super" bits let me know if yours is also problematic. I need some other reviews. I would have hoped that Tomy would have done some more improvements on this little toy we all so love.
