23' diameter Dragon Wing rotor blades for sale.

11' blades with 12" hub bar. 42 pounds total weight.

Estimated total time is less than 75 hours.

No damage history. In excellent overall condition with a nice mirror polish. Some normal non-critical scratches are present on skin where hub bar straps have been slid on and off the blade roots.

Several 1/4 pound jars of Nuvite aluminum polishing compound will be included. See http://www.perfectpolish.com/Nuvite.htm for more info on Nuvite polish and application guides.

Blades are packed securely in a sturdy wooden crate padded by soft foam sheets. Crate size is 135" Long, 9" Wide, 7" High. Shipping weight is 75 pounds. Crate is screwed shut and will banded with steel strapping for extra security. It can be shipped on a carrier of your choice from a business address in Tacoma, WA, zip code 98421, or it can be picked up in Shoreline, WA, 98155. I can also deliver the blades anywhere along Interstate 5 from Seattle, WA to Eugene, OR on Wednesday August 29th.

Hub bar and Nuvite polish would ship separately in a well packaged corrugated box. Estimated shipping weight would be 12 pounds.

Price is $950 USD.

Buyer pays actual shipping charges. There'is no charge for crating and packaging.

Others have had good luck shipping rotor blades via air cargo using:

I accept Paypal payments (including those using a credit card), as well a money order, or a check. Paypal e-check, non-US Postal service money orders, and all checks must clear my bank and yours before shipment, delivery, or pickup... likely 2 weeks or longer. There's no shipping delay on US Postal service money orders.

Buy with confidence... my eBay feedback rating is 100%: http://myworld.ebay.com/gyropilot/

Good for you John. I will have to keep looking for a deal. I just cant afford new blades now.
 
How did you ship it so fast????
 
John I didn't know you had it in you. Good Job. I ll watch out for you in the future. LOL
 
I tried to buy a set of blades about a year ago, I lollygagged and missed them. This time I pounced and it worked well.


I got a great deal in shipping from mike. We are having a family reunion here on the ranch this week end. Mike is a relative that lives in Tacoma and was coming for the reunion. What a bad time for a reunion. There is a forest fire about five miles away last night it mad a run of 3500 acres in five hours. What a great light show burnt down one house and three Mobil homes. The fire fighters were able to save about 200 homes they did a great job. This morning the smoke was a killer.

John: Was that your only set of blades?
(Meaning, are you still a gyronaut, or getting out of it by parting out your beautiful Gyrobee machine?)

Kevin,

Yes, I've begun parting out my Bee. There was nothing wrong with it (or me)... I'm just moving on to other interests and hobbies for the time being.

I can still get a convenient rotorcraft fix by renting a helicopter at my local airport from time-to-time.

Best regards,

This is very sad news.:Cry:

Your gyro was one of the inspirations for my build. Hopefully you will one day come back to gyros.
