No endorsement needed. What you do need is a flight review in a GA aircraft to be able to use the RPL. Some schools have RAAus and GA registered versions of the same aircraft, eg SportStar or Foxbat which means the flight review should just be the one flight in the GA version.
In this case, to fly the same aircraft in the same airspace with a different registration, you need to jump through a lot of hoops, get a medical and an ASIC or AVID and another flight review. Not a lot of common sense there.
