Well explained, Rumil.
Radagast didn't "send" Gwaihir...Gwaihir came of his own free will. One does not order an eagle (especially of the line of Thorondor) around.
Radagast failed because he was supposed to help Gandalf and Saruman prepare for the fight against Sauron. He instead turned to nature and abandoned his mission, therefore failing. It is unknown if he even returned to Valinor, or remained.
