2.1M (82.7") RQ-7 Shadow Balsa Wood Kit/ Kit+Power Combo (UAS FPV Platform)

The RQ-7 Shadow is a battlefield unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) used by the armed forces of Australia, Italy, Sweden, the United States and others to provide a reconnaissance, surveillance and as a target acquisition platform. The RQ-7 is a high-wing, constant chord pusher configuration with a twin-tailboom empennage and an inverted v-tail. The aircraft has fixed tricycle landing gear. Takeoffs are assisted by a trailer-mounted pneumatic launcher which can accelerate the 375 pound aircraft to 70 knots and is recovered with the aid of arresting gear similar to jets on an aircraft carrier. Over 500 RQ-7 Shadows are in operational use throughout the world carrying electro-optic/infrared imaging sensors and having a range of over 100km and a 4-hour on-target loiter time.

Our RQ-7 Shadow can't offer a 4 hour duration or a 100km range, but it is certainly a fantastic FPV platform with all of the highly practical features of the full size RQ-7, including the aerodynamically proven inverted V-tail, twin boom layout, center-mounted pusher motor, fixed tricycle undercarriage and the huge central nacelle giving a clear view for your cameras and sensors.

For the scale enthusiasts among us the kit builds into quite an accurate representation of the full-size Shadow and, at 2100mm wingspan the large scale enthusiasts won't be disappointed either as this one is nearly 1/2 scale!

The kit features a full set of components and 1:1 plans for wing assembly, laser cut parts from the highest quality balsa and ply to make construction fast, accurate and enjoyable to build!  A full accessory pack, with covering material and decals to provide a complete finished scale replica model.

Fourtitude Dual Tank Mounting Trays 12oz

This item is a must have if you are running a smoke system. The tray is CNC cut from .125” (3mm) thick Birch plywood that assembles in minutes. Mounting dual tanks has always been tough because most aircraft have lightning holes right where you need to place the velcro straps. With this tray you mount it to the aircraft tank floor with wood screws. Then you can easily mount the tanks with just one velcro strap on the back of the tanks.

Spot On Aluminum Round Servo Arm for 25T Futaba & New Hitec

Spot On Aluminum Round Servo Arm for 25T Futaba & New Hitec

High Quality 1" Aluminum servo arm from Spot-On RC

Spot On Servo Arms are made of high quality 7075-T6 aluminum, one of the highest strength alloys available for this purpose.  They feature an ultra secure double lock design, keeping your servo arm secure and eliminating any slop between the main servo gear and the arm.  Spot On Servo Arms are also sand blasted and anodized for a beautiful appearance.

Spot on offers their servo arms in many sizes, threads and gear output compatibility.  Spot On arms are offered in:
M3, or #4-40 holes, so you can use ball links that are metric or standard Futaba, Hitec or JR compatible gear mesh. Sizes ranging from 1” to 2” for single arms and 2.5” to 4.5” for rudder arms.

Available colors are Black or Silver

Spot On RC Servo Arms are measured from the center hole of the servo to the outermost hole (for example, a 1” arm is exactly 1” from hole center to hole center).  However the larger sizes offer the option of one or two more additional inner holes so you can use them for future projects or fine tune your ratios.

Redwing RC only offers the V2, upgraded version, with stronger aluminum and finer design.  No matter which Spot On RC Servo Arms you choose you will be sure to experience problem free set up and operation with these high quality servo arms.
