The Grumman F9F/F-9 Cougar was a aircraft carrier-based fighter aircraft for the United States Navy. Based on Grumman's earlier F9F Panther, the Cougar replaced the Panther's straight wing with a more modern swept wing. The Navy considered the Cougar an updated version of the Panther, despite having a different official name, and thus Cougars started off from F9F-6 upward.

Our F9F-8 Cougar is designed around a Dr. Mad Thrust aluminum alloy 90mm 12-blade EDF unit and 1550kv motor for use with a 6S 22.2V lipoly battery. It is perfect for a pilot looking for something different. The all metal tricycle landing gear gives superb ground handling and is extremely rugged. Spring loaded gear legs absorb less than perfect landings. The airframe of the Cougar is molded fiberglass composite for the fuselage with the wings and horizontal tail being of built up balsa and plywood. All wooden surfaces come pre-covered in plastic film. Functional airbrakes help slow this model down for landing.

Since this is a plug and fly model, all you need to do is complete the final assembly, set up your radio and fly. An evening of work is all that is needed to get the Cougar ready for its first sortie. We've included premium electronics, including a 100A high voltage ESC, and metal gear servos on all control surfaces. No need to upgrade any electronics here, we've done it for you already.

Out of the box this jet is really something to see. Way too much hot glue was used. Really? How much would epoxy or CA have added to the cost? Went together well enough. The FIRST time I tried to do a taxi test the ESC burned out. Replacing it so far has been an adventure.

I'll follow up on this if/when I actually get it in the air.

Item arrived with a large crack in the middle of the fuselage, and nose. RMA opened from more than one week: IGNORED. Never again on Hobbyking!

Just received this lovely model. I thought maybe I'd paid a bit too much, having to have paid import tax from Hong Kong, but boy oh boy, this is worth it! The factory has fitted all the parts, servos, motor, esc, but so professionally to a standard I certainly couldn't have done! You just need to screw in the horns and add a bit of glue - terrific! The overall finish is really top dollar - you won't be disappointed!
