This is a nice GYRO! Someone’s going to have a lot of fun with it. Engine is in pristine condition; completely rebuilt by an Aviation mechanic. Counterbalanced. It sat for a couple years in hangar. The original owner was learning on a Mac 65, then going on to a Mac 90, then into this Subaru E-81. He flew the 65 for a while, he had traumatic life events happen, and lost interest. This E-81 engine was turned thru on a monthly basis.
This aircraft was not built on a budget! Excellent craftsmanship and parts! Has an important storage lock box for flight paperwork, etc behind the seat. All gauges & lights, etc. work.
I replaced the fuel pump and gas lines; starts up on the lightest flick; idles perfectly; runs up flawlessly. Items I am including in this sale: Brand new Benson blades (never used, still in box), blade extensions for use of the blades with this Gyro Helicopter. Also included is a custom built tilt trailer for Benson type gyros; blade platform or you can disassemble and store in the custom made stainless steel blade box.
I have been flying ultra-light airplanes for several years and always yearned to fly Gyrocopters. I also have the Mac 90 & 65 gyros for my own learning as this Subaru is too advanced for me. May be selling them later, too!
What does this Gyro need?? A pilot!!!! Happy bidding!
