F9F Panther EPO Jet Receiver Ready ARF
The Grumman F9F Panther saw extensive combat in the Korean War flying over 78,000 sorties. It was one of the U.S. Navy's first successful carrier-based jet aircraft. They remained in front line service until 1958.
Our F9F Panther has a 27 in. wingspan and is 28-3/4 in. long with a 19.5 oz. flying weight. This airframe jet is pre-painted and assembles in about an hour. Designed for simple everyday flying, the model is hand launched and lands on its belly or can be used with the optional landing gear (sold separately
HLI6916
). Included is a 64mm ducted fan.
The large battery hatch is held in place by magnets, making battery swaps quick and easy. The F9F has plenty of power for hand launching and handles easily with a solid feel in the air. The roll rate is crisp and the speed range will satisfy both intermediate and advanced pilots. Landings are low anxiety events due to the slow approach speed and the tough airframe.
Full throttle flight speed is around 65MPH and flight time on the included 1600mAH LiPo pack is 5-6 minutes.
What is EPO Foam?
- EPO Foam is similar to elapor and other durable foam used for building model airplanes. It is denser and more forgiving to knicks and scratches than EPS or "Ice Chest" foam. It holds up well over time and resists dings, dents, and minor crash damage.
