- Total Flight Time
- 5,400
Gyro project for sale. Two seats, front seat has controls, rear seat is also 7.5 gallon gas tank. Configuration is similar to Dominator and/or Carl Schneider designs,…. By “similar” I mean tri-gear, large slow-turning prop, low thrust line, tall tail
Hirth 100HP 4-cyl aircraft motor, F-30 105FCG, 3.33 reduction gear swings a 72” Warp drive prop at a low rpm for low noise. Matt Dandar at Recreational Power Engineering (Hirth Company in the US) says the F-30 is worth about $4500. Electric start. TTSN in unknown, but is in the 10-20 hour timeframe,… meaning almost new.
Low thrust line, Dominator tail section, fiberglass body with windshield
Rotors include four blades, all are Rotor Flight Dynamics (RFD) Dragon Wings: two are 10.5 feet, two are 12 feet. Three RFD hub bars, two are 12” and one is 36” so it is possible to have rotor diameters of 22’ through 27’. RFD rotor head.
Instrument panel, anti-collision strobes, pitch setting tools for prop
One-piece aluminum widely spaced main gear (Grove Aircraft), nose gear trailing link suspension (self-damped) good for rough fields, adjustable rudder pedal mounting for differing length of leg, wheels/tires/brakes on main gear came off of a light aircraft such as a Cub or Champ
$9,500
