RECOMMENDED HELIS
FOR TRAINING
back to beginners corner
Heli's are most often sold with or without engine and that is all. You will need to
purchase a Heli radio and gyro as well. Any questions on needed hardware please
direct your questions via e-mail to one of the officers listed on the about page.
Caliber 30







Features  

Equipped 2-step belt reduction system, which is succeeded CALIBER60's technology realized high
efficiency drive, and reducing mechanical noise and vibration. It exceeded the flight performance in
30-class GP Helicopters.
EMS and MMS are available by changing the included servo plate. No extra costs are needed.
Able to change position of the Main Rotor Grip for your comfortable machine performance.
The Direct Rudder Control allows 180-degree Auto-Rotation.
Fixed Rods are used as a standard (Patented). Screwing and adjusting are never needed.
Able to maintain the engine with connected its muffler, due to the L-Type engine mount are
designed.
Pre-balanced 550mm Main Rotor is included.
6mm Spindle Shaft and 10mm Main Mast are included for safety and toughness.
47 fully raced ball bearings are used.
Spare parts are sectional supplied and it's possible to maintain economically.
Standard die-cast muffler is realized highly power and lower noise at the same time.
Raptor 30 V2

This model was designed and engineered by the World-renowned Mr.Shigetada Taya. It combines
elements of his previously successful designs with today's advanced technologies. This is truly a
versatile model helicopter for everyone.

The Thunder Tiger team of engineers and test pilots have collected feedback from around the world
and have made the Raptor 30 an even better helicopter. New molds and tooling for parts and many
other areas have subtle changes to increase strength and durability. All production parts use the most
modern technology available to meet the standards as set forth by ISO-9001. In the last few years we
have spend time and resource to develop a new Thunder Tiger PRO-39H(R) engine for the Raptor 30
v2 and other 30 size helicopters. Available in ARF or kit form, the new Raptor 30 v2 and the
PRO-39H(R) engine will provide you with many hours of enjoyment.

Features


Heavy duty collective pitch arm
Enlarged engine starting shaft from 5mm to 6mm
Aerodynamic canopy for faster flights
Metal alloy spring steel clutch with larger diameter
Elevator control arm enhanced to eliminate flex
Extended fan shroud increases cooling effectiveness, and strengthens
the forward sideframe stiffness at the same time
Main rotor blade spindle enlarged to 6mm provides solid hovering, responsive
3-D performance and consistent blade tracking
Main rotor blade radial and thrust bearings enlarged from 5mm to 6mm for more
precise blade pitch control
Thicken the steel ball mounting area on the flybar paddle control arms by 0.5mm
eliminates any flexing under extreme 3-D flying
Tail rotor grips are the same as the 60 providing more solid control,
and larger tail rotor diameter
Vertical tail fin lengthened by 10mm to protect tail rotor blades during
rough landings, and re-enforced with ribs
Swashplate re-designed for longevity and minimal freeplay
Fuel tank resigned for Raptor .30 v2 with 340cc capacity
Tank reduces aircraft CG shift and carburetor sensitivity
Rugged aluminum tail boom supports with plastic ends eliminate
fatigue and cracking
Larger volume 30-size muffler for increased power and low noise
Re-designed and strengthened sideframes increase crash survivability,
and reduce engine vibrations
New frames use Raptor 60 style heavy duty double ball bearing for engine
starting shaft. Frames also include built-in molded clips for gyro wire  
Electric heli's are a great way to get
your feet wet.The Blade CP is the least
expensive and is very cheap on parts
when needed. The T-rex is more
expensive in the beginning but the
parts are less expensive than the glow
powered heli's listed above.
Blade CP electric

Detailed Description
Complete package, all you need to
add are (8) alkaline AA batteries for
the transmitter. Heli is built and radio is
completely installed, just charge and
go. Collective pitch control system, this
is the best flying entry level micro
complete package we've flown yet.
(Doesn't compare to the T-Rex but is
WAY ahead in performance and value
compared to ANY of the "motor on a
pole" tail system types!) LONG flight
time with the included NiMh battery,
good stability and pretty maneuverable
right out of the box. Add the aerobatic
enhancement (EFLH1168) set and its
aerobatics capable including inverted
hovering and flight.
