Anyone Flying the Tufflight Panther?

My Feedback: (4)
I am considering the Panther from Tufflight as a good way to fly both B and SSC without bringing a load of planes. Advertising from Tufflight claims a simple switch of engines is all it takes to change classes. I have used their Predators with excellent results but want to get a little input from other "casual" combat fliers before plunking down bucks for four Panther kits. I liked the surviveability of the Predator and the guys at Tufflight are great with customer service. I just have doubts about how well this plane would perform with a .15.
I know there are as many different opinions as there are designs but would appreciate hearing from all you out there in "R/C webland" about the Panther.
Thanks.

I saw one fly at the Hilltopper contest in September. They look great. I think he used a o.s la .15 with the lightweight ripstop they boast about. I like to get one. very manuaverable and fast.

I have a Predator with a os46fx and a Panther with an os25fx. The Predator is easily faster. I call the Panther a kitten next to it's bigger brother. It flys very easy and straightforward(the Panther). It seems fast enough with the 25 for open class, I haven't tried the 15 though.
