I bought a stock Hobby King Wing-Wing Z-84, I found that it would have the habit of barely moving against the wind, and then not have enough speed downwind to have decent control.

So the teeny-tiny motor running a 5x5 prop, and 10a 2s ESC came out, replaced by a 2200 3S motor sporting a 6x4 prop and 40A ESC.

The difference is light and day, this thing has loads of power now and you can just basically point it and go.  Obviously it's hopeless as a long-range or a decent camera platform, but it's fantastic as a fun plane to really just zoom around and have fun with.  It is insanely loud though :)

Here's some short clips from the 3 flight I did, with Neil helpfully giving it a good throw for me.
