Congratulations on your purchase of the Raptor 30 V2 helicopter. 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. Raptor 30 in 1998, many have been sold
around the world. It is the most popular 30-size helicopter in the world. The raptor 30 has helped
beginners master the art of RC helicopter flying. The Raptor 30 has helped experienced pilots
learn new 3-D maneuvers. This is truly a versatile model helicopter for everyone. We did not just
sit on our laurel, our team of engineers and test pilots have collected feedback from around the
world and have now made the Raptor 30 an even better helicopter. We made new molds and
tooling for new parts. Many areas have subtle changes to increase strength and durability.
As one of the largest R/C manufacturers in the world, Thunder Tiger has spared no expense to
bring you this incredible new machine. All production parts are manufactured by use of the most
modern technology available and meets or exceeds the standards as set forth by ISO-9001.
In the last few years we have spent time and resources to develop a new Thunder Tiger PRO-
39H(R) ring engine for the Raptor 30 V2 and for other 30-size helicopters. The new PRO-39H(R)
has much better transition characteristics than the Pro 36H ABC engine. The needles are easy to
set. The ring design eliminates the criticalness of ABC engines. You will find the new 39H engine
produce more power than any other available 30-size engines. Together, the new Raptor 30 V2
and the PRO 39H(R) engine will provide you with many hours of enjoyment. Thank you again for
purchasing our fine products.
