No problem! You can come to us (Ukraine, Poltava or Kharkov city) and make a demo flight... We will help you with visa, accomodation and anything you need.

Cheers,

I am glad to see the ZA-6 survived in some form. I thought it was a fine looking bird when I first read about it in Rotorcraft Magazine a few years back.

Hi Alex, congratulations for your building, it is really pretty, clever and interesting.
Thanks for the documents, the technical details are really a delight.
The rotor is a realy nice masterpiece of engineering.

Thank you very much, guys!!! I am really happy, that our small bird looks not bad. And your opinion and critics are very needed for me and for our design office!!!

Thanks again

Alex

Alex,

do you intend to certify it in the U.S.?

[Aerokopter]

To be able to be selling in U.S. AK1-3 must be certified there.

Yes, Mike, of course, we would love to certify it, but... now I am looking for a partner, who can cover it. We are highly expanding production, we are in local certification process and this year AK1-3 will be certified as a type in Ukraine, but it is costing time and money and we are just unable to do and invest everything and everywhere.

So we are looking for a person-partner, who can find a solution.

This guy (or a company) will get exclusive rights to make distribution and service network on US territory!

Alex,
In what category are you going to certify it ?
did you investigate the possibility to certify it as "ultralight helicopter" in Italy ? for now the only country to have a type for ultralight helicopters.
cheers

[Aerokopter]

Victor, thanks for this question.

I have a lot of requests from Italy and very good interested guys there. Unfortunately we are 650 kg approx for now, the limit for UL in Italy is 450, so ... we are "bigger". Also we do not provide AK1-3 as a KIT for now, so I`m still investigating the possible ways of certification.

cheers, Alex

That looks like one of the best powerplant and aircraft combos I have seen. I have always thought the EJ25 would make a great helo engine if done right. Looks like you guys nailed it! Way to go.

[KenSandyEggo]

I don't think you can get a craft certified in the U.S. with an auto-conversion engine. The engine has to be certified by itself. I was going to say Sport category, but remembered helis weren't included.

[Brent_Brown]

Can you say a kit at 49% of the work done.

[scrapman]

Where can I purchase one of these and please dont send me anywhere but the factory I like the 5 big parts package

Rotorfx is offering these at twice the price :sad:

Rotorfx is offering these at twice the price :sad:

Tom, not sure where you're looking, but Rotor F/X's current advertised price is $158,400 in "kit" form, including shipping to the US. That's up 76%, well short of double, and includes the cost of getting it to the US.

Note, the post that started this thread is more than six years old. Lots of prices have gone up since then, especially with the US Dollar's volatility against the Euro.
