COMPLETE SET, Helicopter, Radio control, accessories and plenty of spare parts.

 

Up for BID is my pride and joy! This is a Thunder Tiger Raptor 30 Helicopter.

 

READY TO FLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I apologize if you don’t like auctions with a reserve, but we’re talking about $1,200 of equipment. I don’t expect to get it all back, but I’d like to recover a portion. This is an incredibly sweet deal. You won’t be disappointed!

 

I'm open to having it returned, but please understand what you are buying. I will accept returns within 7 days.

 

All you need is fuel and a high-speed drill or an RC electric starter. The Heli comes with an OS .37 Engine, WK-G0007 Gyro, Futuba receiver and transmitter, 1,500 Mah battery (The standard batter is usually 600 Mah, but I upgraded this battery), muscle pipe (Makes the Heli sound like a real chopper and it keeps the engine cooler by allowing better air flow) and a glow plug extender. Comes with a Futuba T6XA transmitter. ($300 radio system.) 

 

I have owned this Heli for 3 years. NO CRASHES and I have maintained it very meticulously. I have probably run about 8 gallons of fuel. The engine is as strong as ever. (This Heli has never been submitted to acrobatic flying. This is why it’s as good as new.)

 

My free time has been reduced a great deal and I like to fly my RC planes. (Less maintenance involved.)

 

Although I called this a TOY. It should not be considered one. This is a very powerful machine!!!! Severe injury can occur from improper maintenance or carelessness while operating. 

 

Please read the manual before proceeding to assemble this machine. Please follow all the instructions the manual states, even though I’m providing all the tools to balance and calibrate this machine. If you are a novice, please SEEK HELP from your local hobby shop or trained expert. This helicopter will be partially disassembled for shipping. YOU or a TRAINED EXPERT will need to balance and calibrate this machine before FLYING!

 

I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU GO AT IT ALONE.

Will be shipped UPS Ground.

This is NOT included, but I’d like to make a special offer incase your interested:

I have a GY401 gyro. One of the best helicopter gyros. I never got around to install it. I can add it to this auction for an additional $70. You can see the original price I paid ($124.99). That’s a $55 dollar savings if you want it. I will give the option at the end of the auction in case you like to buy it.

 

Thanks for looking. Happy Bidding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On Aug-17-08 at 10:25:48 PDT, seller added the following information:

No returns will be allowed just because you change your mind. As specified above, please understand what your are buying. (This is my helicopter, I have flown it within the last week, so I know there are no defetcs.) Improper balancing or inability to properly set-up this heli is also not a valid return reason. (This is why I specify that a novice get help.)    

You need to report any damages incurred during shipping within 6 hours of delivery. (If the box were to be damaged during shipping. I only have 24 hours to file a claim with UPS.)

A refund will only include the base price of the helicopter. Shipping charges will not be refunded.

In the event of a return, buyer will pay all charges to have this box returned. I'm making this clear, but believe me. This is a great helicopter. Everything works. No defects.

Thanks for bidding.
