I have the exact same plane from kmp. 64mm. The plane lands just a touch tail heavy. Flys great. I chose to take the landing gear off and hand launch as it has a hard time getting through the grass with those small wheels.

Good luck with it - i enjoy mine

I have the Starmax 70mm F18 tigermeet version.
Also, a very nice flyer. Quality seem quite good in the Starmax planes, everything fit together very well and I've never had a problem with their servos, EDF or ESC. Got mine from Banana Hobby.
You should have lots of fun with this but I found they are difficult to ground launch from grass (tried mine on the old ASRCM field last year) but luckily they hand launch quite easily.
