The Nan Shadow is a high-ish performance all-round F5J competition glider. It came to the scene in 2006 as an F3J model and the main goal of development was to create a competitive model to suit all weather conditions. Currently available only in cross tail version. The Shadow F5J uses the HN507M1 airfoil by Norbert Habe. The airfoil has a very wide speed range. Since its release in 2006 the model has undergone numerous updates, the most recent being the change to a cross tail empennage which improved the handling. Model is suitable for experienced modellers and competitors.
