Mosquito helicopter fun

[@BroughtToYouByDDean]

For anyone as curious as I am, this is a single seater heli that will run you anywhere from $53,000 for the "kit" version to $68,000 if you want it factory assembled. It only weighs 298lbs and has a max load limit of about 312lbs. Top speed is 80mph while it cruises at 75mph. Holds 12 gallons of fuel and burns it at 6 gallons an hour so max safe flight time is about an hour and 45 min. Looks to be a badass fun little puddle jumper!

[@Meowface.]

Wonder what the turbine version is worth I can’t afford it but… you know For daydreaming purposes

[@user-np1ez1sx2v]

😅 buenos datos..

[@Side85Winder]

At 312lb thats pretty good. Take into the account average person you have around 120lb or 55kg payload. A small tent and some exploring gear and food 👌.

[@BroughtToYouByDDean]

@@Side85Winder yeah for sure. Would be great for a one man bug-out

[@rskat501]

​@@Side85Winderwouldn't say average weight is 120 lb... Not for a man anyways. More like 150lb average.
