  • This model by Legend Hobby is a 1/2 scale replica of the real RQ-7 Shadow surveillance UAV used by the military. I was fortunate to be 1 of the 2 people asked to build and review the first ones delivered into the United States. After flying and absolutely loving it.. I knew there was so much potential for this to be one of the most unique and fun RC airplanes ever available. Make sure you stay tuned for some of the amazing things we have planned with our RQ-7.

    You installed your servo grommets backwards. They go in from underneath which keep the screw from crushing the rubber. The object is vibration isolation for the servo especially if using glow or gas engines. But unbalanced props will cause electric motors to have vibration as well….Also when epoxying carbon fiber it needs the shine to be scuffed on both surfaces for a good bond. Just some friendly tips from a pilot who’s been doing this for over 45 years.

      Deluxe comes with everything needed for the airplane.. servos, motor/esc and prop, regular kit is just the airplane, you have to supply your own electronics.

    That is an ARF with a power combo not a PNP. I have to disagree with it being a PNP. I have built ARFs that require less work than this. No insult to you or your channel but that is not a PNP.
