    I like the way youtry and cover anything that flies - fixed-wing, rotor-wing, Part 103. Flight is my passion and I've been doing since '77 as a hang glider and '78 for my private pilot's license. Disability has me looking at the 103 fare and things are looking up. Some really nice DIY units like the Badlands, Aerolight and the Hummel. That Mosquito heli looks pretty slick as well. Keep up the promotion efforts.

    Welcome back to Mooresville, NC to see John! Great video. Please come back and follow up on the other builds there. They’ve all made progress and would love to be represented on your channel as inspiration for all airplane fans.

    Man, I'd love to own that! Looks like a great machine. For now, I'll be learning to fly my trike-launched paramotor, but some day would love to upgrade to a Mosquito, and start building that. One of these days!
    Great outro, too, BTW - nice work! 👍 Have a Merry Christmas.

    I've been interested in Rotorway since the 1980's when the kit was $30,000.00 . Fell in love but couldn't afford it at the time. I 'm still interested in purchasing one.

    You should do a factory tour of the company and go in depth on their "new" a600. They changed the landing gear, stabiliser, tail rotor and some fiberglass parts but they remain kinda vague on the increased performance of the new model

      Experimental Aircraft Channel i’m building an autogyro. Specifically it’s a Parsons two place trainer with a Lycoming 03 20 pusher. What I would like to know is in more detail about how to go about a weight and balance on that type of a machine. It is important to place the CG, propeller thrust and the rotor thrust line within certain very limited distance from each other. I’ve seen a scant few hang test videos out there but none of them go to any detail about how all of this should come about. If you are lucky enough to see that through, documenting this for you Pilot Operating Handbook which every homebuilder must pen is another step which seems not well spoken about. I’m slowly building my base of flying and building buddies but scant few knows how to go about this in the gyro world. Want a challenge?

    Had a talk with the guys at Rotorway back in the 90's, when they said that the life limit on their rotor blades were 800 hours, I quickly lost interest, Hopefully they've extended the life limit times just a little bit since then.

    • @RotorXAircraft

      Hi RotorWay is now called Rotor X Aircraft and we have made significant improvements since the 90s. Specifically, the rotor blades are rated for 1500 hours now.

    I watched until the end as you suggested, and since I wear headphones watching UA-cam videos, your audio at the end about blew my ears out. So from now on, as soon as your "content" is finished, I will mute the audio.

      That must happens a lot, how to you then handle the irritating commercials that come on at 185db over the content volume. It bloody irritating. There should be an algorithm on UA-cam that one the volume is set to a specific level, it is modulated to stay that way.

      Liability insurance would be the main driver of the increase costs over the years.
