Raptor G2 is the Walkera No. 36, they are the same helicopter but color is different. You can check here to compare

Walkera 60 is the newer helicopter and it come with separated electronics design (picture here).

Both of them are belt driven tail rotor.

I like my 36 but I think the 60 is a better design.
It has ccpm and a better belt drive for the tail.
Just my opinion
Good flying to you.

I am in the same delema,how will the #39 compair,I am looking at one of them,comes with brushless motor and a lipo? battery, this ship is just a little bigger about 27 inch rotor.
Does the raptor come out of the box with a better set up, it sounds like that is the biggest problem for us new guys. We don't have the ship set up rite so it can't fly rite

I have heard that walkera have rubbish electronics....this is worth bearing in mind.

As for set up? I think anything that flys 'out of the box' needs some adjustment. If in doubt about your helicopter....just post and ask questions....its better to be patient if you are not sure on the set up.

Since they are both Walkeras maybe we need to hear from someone who have both the W36/G2 and the W60? I would like to hear a direct comparison between the two.
I think that info is on the forum allready but not sure where.

Hello gpclassic here I own both Dragon fly 36 7 A Raptor G 2 they are basicly the same Heli's the Dragon fly is less user friendly because the Heli needs to be antisipated during flight and is slightly slower in responce than the G2 I've been told in other forums these are throw away heli's .. by some idiots .. they both need to be modified w/ brushless motors Esc's Heading Hold gyro's & at least a 2100 Mhr
