I’m keen to collect together, in one easily-accessible place, all the factory and after-market modifications 

for the Shadow and Streak series, together with any other useful upgrades.

If you wish to freely share any modifications or upgrades that you have designed,
then please contact Bruce Conway at Fly Micro to discuss what you are able to offer to the Shadow owner’s community.
