I have lost my medical so I am selling my gyro. It is close to completion. The major items needing finished are the control rods, final cheek plates, battery tray, exhaust and rotor blades. Included with it is a mold for the rotor blades and a trailer.

I am a certificated Airframe and Power plant technician, so I’d like to think the construction has been done well
.
The engine is a Subaru EJ22 that has about 8 hrs. on it since I purchased it with apx 10,000 miles on it. The prop is a Warp drive 3-blade 72-inch diameter.
It is dual stick with hyd brakes on pilots side and has a king transponder with an ATC encoder. It has the mounting tray, and is wired for a king 165 radio and has a two place stereo intercom Airspeed, Altimeter and vertical speed with Digital engine gauges and rotor tach. There are two strobes, nav lights and landing lights.

There is electric trim on the horizontal stabilizer and for the rotor head
The rotor head is a two bearing heavy duty one and includes the hub bar.

It is in my shop right now and blocked in so I don’t have a current photo of it. The photo here is of it at on early stage of construction, with a few more at http://www.lsippell.com/page2.html.

I have apx. $19,500 invested in it but am asking$9,500 obo.

It will be after the 23rd before I am able to extract it from my shop and take pictures of it
If you are seriously interested email me or contact me at 501-470-4294 evenings central time.

Louis,
could you not fly with the new Sport Pilot rules?

sportpilot wont help, if you were rejected once, sportpilot will still reject you, you can always go U/L

This may not be the case in the final rule. The FAA has noted the obvious unfairness of this clause.

Udi's right, Rick...you might want to hang on a few weeks and see what happens. The FAA took this back under advisement immediately after the rule was announced.
