This is a BW Rotor Co. Inc. Sky Kopter Kit.
You can build the one or 2 seat helicopter version from this kit. The 2 seater kit is 90% built and was mocked up. It’s currently unassembled and is ready to be shipped. When Ready to fly it only weights 135 pounds empty, the BW Sky Kopter can lift a useful load of more than 500 pounds. Basically a gyroplane with a pair of pressure jets mounted on the rotor blade tips. The pressure jets are Gluhareff GB-2-20 units which operate on bottled propane fuel. The fuel flow is conducted through a sealed ring at the rotor head then through lines in the rotor blades to the jets at the rotor tips. Maximum two-man crews weight is 400 pounds (the two- 30-gallon fuel bottles soak up the other 100 pounds) yet the Sky Kopter is said to have a rate of climb of 800 feet per minute and a cruise speed of 40-50 mph.
Tons of building hours already invested Both engines are built and ready to be installed in the blades that still need to be built. I have a third engine ready to run on a test stand. Basically all that’s left to do is to purchase the metal for the blades, build the blades and final assemble the kit.
I have all the plans and instructions printed out in a binder for both the one and two seat versions if you want to build more. I’ve been told these were easy to operate and fly very well. This is perfect for your private collection or a museum you won’t find another one for sale anywhere.
Includes: plans, frame, brackets, 3 engines,1 seat, seatbelt, 2 propane tanks, nuts, bolts, fuel fittings, stainless fuel lines, cyclic joystick, rudder, and hardware.
NO rotor blades you still need to build them.
I’m located in Valdosta Georgia
