"cheapest helicopter" famous last words
lmfao 😂😂
There's a fireworks stand on the side of the road not far from my house. "Cheap-cheap Fireworks!" is its name. Run by a three-fingered guy...
It’s nowhere near the cheapest, it’s mostly the maintenance that’s cheap. Yearly costs are half that of an R22 and they come with avionics
Keep in mind the reason mainstream helicopters are so expensive this due to the certification process, that literally flat out doubles the cost of any aircraft on the market. Pound for pound the equipment r&d craftsmanship and time to build an r22 should put it at effectively no more than 120 to 150k, competitive with this helicopter if it weren't for the FAA's overreach
@@GODOFLIQUOR So the Robison is now a standard? oh , help us!
Beautiful aircraft, thanks for sharing 👍.
Rotorway(now Rotor X) has been building their own custom engine for decades. It is an opposed 4 cylinder but not a VW engine.
And @ 160BHP, not 140.
The first ones was Subaru engines i think
Dang, thats an incredible price! I was thinking twice as much.
Pay the money, but get no parts.....still a bargain???
A friend of mine has an older one of these and it's a handful to operate because everything is manually controlled. Not sure how much the newer electronics help but it seems like a very good deal for the money. I'd rather fly one of these than get in a Robinson that has the ability to mast bump in turbulence.
These have the ability to mast bump also.
@@chippyjohn1 Yikes. Guess I'll just wait until I can afford a new Hill HX50. :D
@@RealRickCox It will cost you $250-$300 an hour alone in fuel in that new helicopter. All 2 blade helicopters are susceptible to mast bumping. Happened a lot to Hueys in Vietnam. Bell 206 has had a lot of issues also.
@@RealRickCoxsame, i really love the hx50 and can't wait for first flight. i should have my helicopter license by then.
@@chippyjohn1 I’ve never heard of a 206 mast bumping and I don’t have to get a special endorsement to fly the 206 like I would for the Robinson. The rotor systems are completely different in their engineering.
Their drive system looks about as strong as a mosquito but has 3 times the power. They have had issues with the old chain and even the new belt system snapping as well as drive shafts. The design from the beginning was very novice, not sure if the still have a belt running to the tail rotor.
New design has a drive shaft for the tail rotor. Not enough hours logged in the newer machines to know how much more reliable it is, but I'd definitely trust it more than the janky triple belt setup they used to have based on principle alone.
Salivating
Thanks for another great video 👌
Thats a 162F??? Not the new A600 Phoenix..
That's right. They bullshitting people. Telling is wider, taller with 180 hp. It's all lies. Someone need to report these people.
I’m a A&P mechanic I work on helicopters and can make some up grades to the mosquito
There Facility is 35 mins from my house - Been looking at a plane, my god i may look at this helicopter
Great video. Thank you! Looks like a cool helicopter to me 👾
Looks ain't everything my friends
I’d buy one of these IF (and only if) it had a turbine engine.
They make one called the jet-exec
I flew the factory 162F. I couldn’t get over the chain drive in an oil bath and multiple fan belts to drive the tail rotor. The pre-flight at that time was about 1 hr. I couldn’t see putting my family in anything less than a turbine helicopter.
shaft driven t/r now
WOW!!! that is one badass choppaa 😂
If you have more from the expo please post
don’t know if I really want to sit in a helicopter with an engine that hasn’t been around much.
I’ll rather go for a moschito or a CH-7 komoress Charlie 2
That is a lot of helo for short money. Good video Bud.
What is their safety record?
It has nice lines too.
"Heavily discounted price" hint.
Love it
WoW 🤩 ! That’s amazing helicopter for a excellent price… but for start, I’m looking for a second hand. Could you give me a place (website) where I can find a few occasions?
I really appreciate your videos and all those informations.
Edward
good looking 🚁
Since they changed more than just the colour of one rivet does that mean that the UK CAA regard it as a totally new aircraft design?
My dream was to have a Helicopter of my own since I was a kid, but once I researched and decided to get my sport pilot licese I am not looking back, I still would like a heli, but you really have much more fun and actual flight time in a Fixed wing, helis are cool, but hard to fly, heavy maintenance and not fun to fly, or so I have been told by helicopter pilots, these buggers dont want to fly so you really have to have your hands and feet always on the controllers
What type of maintenance(engine time before overhaul and max rotor time)….plus…would an helicopter mechanic need special training?
😮 makes me want to get my helicopter license and buy one
@princestonrandall6269 do you have yours? I'm currently getting my PPL
The am hearing the company has filed bankruptcy again. Heed caution to this company.
I sense mike is buying one of these 😂
What's the flight range?
An airplane wants to fly, a helicopter beats the air into submission and wants to die. I'll stick to fixed wing.
WaaHaaahaaahaa that was funny.
yeah the second you start it it wants to kill you...
Is there any cargo space, maybe room for a cooler behind the seats ?
any suggestions on any apps or anything to find small charter flights around the country?
Looks like an old rotorway
it is
Great...any idea u have to monetize it ?
Hi Mike, I'm interested in buying the kits, do you have an idea of assist team to help in assembling..?
I want one
Hi Mike from Sydney Australia.
Do you know that the chemical window cleaner the aircraft owners are using to maintain such shine and clarity. Can you check "behind the scenes" for me?
🌏🇭🇲
Lemon Pledge is what the buddy next to me in the hangar used on his Vagabond.
How do I find one on controller website ?
I have ask for more information and no one gets back to me.
How safe are these
all aircraft are safe until they hit the ground
What’s the rules about flying from home?
It would be a great way to get to the airport…. 😀
I think the neighbors might not like it very much.
New owner? So that guy that bought, built and flies it doesn't own it?
Rotor way got bought out?
long time ago yes
Yooo that’s legit
If I’m not mistaken, you can also get this helicopter already built, just contact their sales department about it.
Estimated range?
usually it's not much, from take-off to the crash site
Flying car.. 🙂
I want your life!!!
The problem with all of mikes videos is the lack of accuracy in the information. It’s very often incorrect. Beware aviation newbies. Do your own research. Don’t depend on mikes information
What a petty little person you are. Mike gives general information. And he expects you to do your own research. How you've missed that in his videos says everything about your sad petty self.
honestly it looks like what id expect to get if i brought a helicopter from allyexpress
no
Very cheap helicopter
Rather buy a cheap house. I was hoping u say 75k.
A VW engine? You couldn’t give me that thing! It’s a fatal accident waiting to happen!
Never was a VW engine
I feel sorry for the people that lost their deposit because Rotor X just went bankrupt and your video only made it worst by peddling a company that knew was going bankrupt. Giving discounts while inflation is going up is a sign the company knew they are going out of business and tried to steal deposits from new buyers
Nobody touches a very touchy subject of flying small craft.... Code Brown.... in other words when the pilot or anybody else has to poop (think diarrhea) and there is no time to find a place to land.
Oh No not bought out by the chinise, there goes the the quality and safety....
It’s gyrocopter or nothin for me. Atleast if the engine fails, I can still come down safely
Helicopters become autogyros when the engine fails. They autorotate.
@@Maverickib unless it's a Robinson
@@bufordt.justice4052 Did all my flight training in Robbies. Hundreds if not thousands of autos.
some things should not be home built. why? no just no.
It’s not really “home built” more like home assembling from a kit. not for everyone but anyone with a little mechanical sympathy could do it, and it would still need to pass inspection
@@steelkatz9750 did you see the guy bolting the hatch on the submarine last week?
He worked a ratchet like a drunk fool.I wouldn't have let the guy near my race car with any tool. Find it, its worth watching. I mean thats the guy they picked to bolt the hatch on. Homemade planes and submarines are 2 things ill never get on.
Warning -Rotor-X has gone out of business failing to deliver paid for kits.
In the last year, Rotor-X refused to provide parts or old kit boxes while
demanding to sell only entire kits.
There are a very large number of people who want nothing to do with Rotor-x.
Give this video a Thumbs down and
lets hope the new owner will be a lot better.
