This is the Thunder Tiger Raptor 60 V2.0 60-Class RC Helicopter. Now from the drawing board of world famous Shegitada Taya and the ultra-modern manufacturing facility of Thunder Tiger Corporation comes the big brother to the Raptor 30 - the Raptor 60. Mr. Taya, the first F3C Helicopter World Champion, designed this helicopter to be the highest quality model helicopter in the RC hobby industry for modelers who love building and flying model helicopters.­

Engineered and produced with the same talent and modern equipment that resulted in the ­machine that captured the 30 size heli market world-wide - the Raptor 60 provides the excitement and performance of a larger - more powerful version. All of the features that made "Raptor" a household word in the R/C helicopter world are incorporated in the 60 size version.
