Last December, 2016, my 582 seized and I had to make an unscheduled landing in a plowed field. Unfortunately, I flared a bit too soon and landed a bit too hard on the rear keel wheel which caused the rear keel to bend/split at the support tube assembly joint, and allow the rotors to touch dirt. I have been trying to decide what to do... Rebuild, or part it out. After much thought, I have decided to sell it as is, or part it out and get into PPC's. Here is what I have if anyone is interested:
- Seized Gray head 582 (with exhaust system, carbs, duel ignition, would like to get $750).
- C gearbox with RK400 clutch (would like to get $1,500).
- Sportcopter rotor head (2015 gold, would like to get $1,500).
- Sportcopter folding mast kit (2014 gold, would like to get $250).
- Wunderlich pre-rotator system (would like to get $100).
- Aluminum radiator with all the hoses and such (would like to get $100).
- Air Command rudder and horizontal stabs with keel mount (damage free, would like to get $500, gold color)
- The entire front end (undamaged from the nose gear back until the mast) to include: Pod (cut short like a dominator painted gold), tires & wheels & black max brakes, rudder peddles and steering linkage (all attached and undamaged), joy stick/yoke, Strobes, 10 Gal seat tank with seat cover, windshield, and more (would like to get $2,500).
I prefer and will give priority to the entire gyro be kept intact and sold all together as is. If so, I would be willing to let it all go for $4,500, except that I will be keeping my MGL radio and EFIS and RDAC (so the instrument panel has these cut outs), and my 68" Warp Drive hub and props. I have all of the build manuals, including the CLT kit build manual that will go with it.
What would be needed to get the air frame fixed up? A new mast (redundant, about $100), rear keel (about $60), main gear axle and several rear frame tubes (about $30).
