Where is Raptor 60?

[chongman]

I have a Raptor 60 that I bought 2 years ago and still running good. But I did not see much of discussions about Raptor 60. Are people not buying and flying R60 any more?

Just for my curiosity...

I fly mine all the time but fact is a 50 is cheaper to fix and many folks have upgraded to 90 sized. My Raptor 60 is currently my best "feeling" helicopter. :smokin:

Thanks,
I thought I was the only one asking (myself) the same question.
I bought my R60 last year (and yes, the store I bought it from suggested me to get the 50 for all the known reasons, but I decided to go for the apparently more stable one to learn) the problem is that don't get much reading material about them anymore.
It seems like everybody is either flying 50's or 90's.
I wonder if should I move to one of those directions???

Unless you want a faster helicopter that burns more fuel there is no "good reason" to go 90 sized. If you are still planting it all the time (crashing) perhaps a 50 sized heli in the fleet would be a good idea. You can't have too many helicopters.

You can't have too many helicopters.

My wife just doesn't understand that principle :arggg:

How many of the damn things can you fly at one time??? :dontknow

:lolol

I got this look :roll: when I told her I bought a TREX600 this morning.

I choosed the 60 cause its size is closer to the 90 instead to the small 30/50.
This is mine from Greece...

I think most people (me included) see the 60 as either an underpowered 90 or an overweight 50. But it does have the huge advantage of being upgradeable to a 90.

Not sure if it is because I have had her the longest but my Rappy 60 is my favorite heli to fly.
