Phoenix Gripen scale 1:7- Deadstick landing

[Bjarnek]

My good friend Kjell-Åke flies here with his Phoenix Gripen with a scale of 1:7 and with a Kingtech K45 turbine. The aircraft weight is 4.7kg so a small but very nice jet model. Unfortunately he got a engine cut off on this flight, but as you can see did Kjell-Åke make a perfect "Deadstick landing" and the model stops about 1m from me after landing.

Hope you like the video.

Nice landing. I always hate it when throttle cuts off especially on an edf.

Absolutely and when the Kingtech K45 turbine died on this one do you don't have much time to get it down, it's not actually made for gliding........
