Grumman F9F Panther from Graupner, I. - 7th flight

Gear not attached as the model comes with fixed gear and the plane looks better without it during flight as well as for intended landings on grass, meadows and on similar suitable natural surfaces where glidings&slidings are eased without the fixed gear, belly painted white for better position identification during flight, Rx: 2,4GHz, 6ch Graupner XR-12iFS. Video shows my 7th flight with the model hand launched at 3/4 throttle, wind 5kts / 2,7 m/s, total flight time 4-5min with the Li-Pol 1300mah/3s - 11,1V - 30C accu, flight weight 1lb 2oz / 530g, wingspan 30in / 770mm, max continuous speed 40mi / 65km.
