PARTIALLY STARTED MQ-9 Reaper Fiberglass 2500mm FPV (ARF) MQ-9 Reaper Fiberglass 2500mm FPV (ARF)

THIS  MODEL HAS BEEN OPEND  AND  A FEW PCE HAVE BEEN GLUED  TO THE FUSE & SCREWED TO THE WINGS  IS SOLD AS IS

This fantastic model is highly unusual being both a scale model and a purpose built FPV/Camera platform. The Reaper UAV is a development of the Predator and represents the latest in cutting edge military technology, it is also much more than a mere surveillance aircraft, with it's armament of Hellfire missiles and laser guided "smart" bombs, it is a hunter/killer with an impressive combat history.

This model is big! 2500mm is impressive by any standard, yet the model is very practical for instance the highly efficient balsa wing is removable for transportation, both the front and rear hatches are secured by strong magnets for easy & fast access, the front under-carriage leg is sprung and steerable, wing tip and tail skids are provided, and so on. Despite the V-Tail the control surfaces are standard configuration, the model is 5 channel and includes a rudder & flaps, the elevator is operated by a single standard size servo.

For FPV use, this model obviously ticks the boxes, it's difficult to argue with the design of the Reaper! There is plenty of room for FPV/Camera equipment, the scale under-slung camera pod is supplied in such a way that it can be fixed or made rotating with a little effort and comes with glazing. For FPV use obviously the model weight will increase and you may want to consider a 4s set up, prop range is 11"-12". However you fly it, this is an impressive model in every respect and is bound to be a talking point wherever it is flown.
