10 Cheapest Ultralight Helicopters You Can Buy

you've always wanted to fly but every ultra-light aircraft you found was too damn expensive don't worry we have you covered as here we are about to unveil the 10 cheapest ultra light helicopters you can buy let's dive right into it shall we the first aircraft on our list is not as cheap as some of the other models but then again the gimbal cabrio g2 was actually built by frenchman so what else would you expect now we should mention that helicopters gimbal the company that manufactures these ultra light helicopters have received certification from the european aviation safety agency and since 2007 they've managed to sell 300 of these helicopters does that mean these helicopters are good did you seriously ask that question the first thing you should know is that the gimbal is made with composite material this makes the aircraft particularly strong while maintaining the weight under control it's got a three-bladed main rotor and is equipped with lycoming o360 j2a 4-cylinder engine that can reach a speed of 165 miles per hour while producing 160 horsepower the glass cockpit can comfortably seat two people and will take you about 13 000 feet in the air inside the cabin you have ergonomic leather seats an adjustable steering pedal heaters music inputs phone charging outlets and incredible visibility maybe that's why they've managed to sell 300 of these bad boys we're still in the same price range but when you see how slick this next model is you'll realize why it's a bit more expensive than the other models the conor k1 is built by conor helicopters an italian manufacturer for ultra-light aircrafts it doesn't need assembly upon arrival and it's ready to fly immediately after it gets to your doorstep the fuselage or the body of the aircraft is made from carbon fiber which ensures the helicopter remains in the european class 6 micro light helicopters and thanks to the carbon fiber kevlar fibers and glass fibers this helicopter has a single assembly with incredible design while light the conor k1 is equipped with the conor tk250 turboshaft engine that's capable of producing 250 horsepower the helicopter has an empty weight of 640 pounds and a gross weight of 1000 pounds this means that it can carry two people that don't exceed the 350 pound weight limit just like the previous model this one has a max speed of 160 miles per hour and a cruise speed of 130 miles per hour unlike the gimbal this one has a service ceiling that's two thousand feet higher or fifteen thousand feet in total and just like that the price went down more than one hundred thousand dollars but we didn't compromise on quality the robinson r22 has been designed by the robinson helicopter company located in california for over 30 years this company is designed aircraft with impeccable performance sleek design and an affordable cost the r-22 uses a two-bladed rotor system which is powered by smashing that like button if you haven't done so already but no it's actually powered by the lycaming o360 engine if you didn't know it already this engine has been d-rated to provide a great performance at high altitudes and during hot californian weather all while giving you reserve power the two-person cabin has the capacity to carry about 490 pounds of cargo with a gross weight of 1 370 pounds the max airspeed of this aircraft is 117 miles per hour but the crew speed goes down to 110 miles per hour because of the extra weight this aircraft is capable of hovering between 8 000 and hundred feet depending on the size of the cargo and just like that we're going down into the list of aircrafts that are cheaper for another one hundred thousand dollars and when you have a german company taking care of the manufacturing you just know quality is going to be the number one priority now let's talk specs the coax2d uses the d-motor which exerts 125 horsepower and propels the four rotor blades which are placed on two rots levels and are rotating in opposite directions this allows for improved stability and of course we have to note that the engine doesn't use any of its power on the tail rotor why because it doesn't have one the helicopter has a maximum speed of 105 miles per hour and a cruise speed of approximately 95 miles per hour at this speed it can actually carry two people whose weight does not exceed 370 pounds now we get it this is not the most powerful helicopter in the world but hey the price is adequate plus you get a design that's unmatched from the competitors although it's very cheap this helicopter will not make it to the ultralight category in some european countries but there are those who say that an 1100 pound aircraft is still considered ultra light the denali h3 sport is a bit on the heavier side but it does retain a comfortable reserve power as for the features this thing is in a category in and of itself none of the competitors can afford the safety features included in the h3 they're usually found in more expensive aircrafts for example the skids are built to withstand a 600 foot per minute impact it comes equipped with a monoblock tubular stainless steel airframe can sit two people and has a two blade rotor powered by the four-stroke rotax flat four engine it also includes stabilizers and a radiator which allow this aircraft to be flown for longer periods without the need for a pause this is the very first helicopter that you can own for less than one hundred thousand dollars and you could say that it has a design that reminds you of the tiny hummingbird unlike some of the previous models this one is a one seater and it has been developed as a result of the ch6 and ch7 that were designed in the 90s the first thing that makes this helicopter stand out among its competitors is the rotax 912 uls 100 horsepower engine the industry standard is the rotax 582 but this one gives more power while increasing security the entire body of the cercare 7b is made from aeronautical materials while the blades are made of composite the special anti-vibration system in the gearbox makes for one smooth ride while the transparent cockpit will allow you to have an unobstructed view of the natural terrain the max speed on this little zinger is 120 miles per hour and it can reach a crew speed of about 95 miles per hour that's not at all bad when you take the price of the aircraft into account now this is the too good to be true category of ultralight helicopters and that's mainly because of the cheap price tag now even though some of you might think that this would be a one seater it's actually capable of carrying two people thanks for the rotax 914 ul epa sar914 engine for an ultralight aircraft this one has 1100 pounds grow weight and an empty weight of 620 pounds thanks to the large tank of gas which is equivalent to 8.9 gallons this yellow mosquito has a max range of 280 miles or about three hours of flight and you know what's the best part it reaches a max speed of 120 miles per hour and has a cruise speed of around 100 miles per hour that's crazy when you consider the size and the price of this aircraft who knew you can own your very own helicopter for just 52 grand well now it's actually possible to do so thanks to composite ext model the flagship of the xc models it's powered by the t62 t2 a1 models and has a max air speed of 100 miles per hour and a cruise speed of about 80 miles per hour the helicopter has a 12 gallon fuel capacity and this will ensure a flight time of about one hour now we should mention that this model is a one seater and it can only carry a 240 pound pilot with a gross weight of the xct reaching 820 pounds hey yeah you don't forget to smash that like button and hit the notification bell is this a joke are we being punked here's a company that makes it a mission to create a version of the robinson r-22 but at one-fifth the price this means that they're focused on creating a one-seater that will be the cheapest in the world while retaining power and maneuverability of some more expensive models the helicycles are equipped with a modified solar t62 turbine which has a 90 horsepower the gross weight of the aircraft should not exceed 850 pounds therefore the allowed weight of the driver is 220 pounds and just try to guess the crew speed of this thing come on we're waiting it's 95 miles per freaking hour and it has a service ceiling of 11 000 feet why are those french guys still in business this one clearly takes home the cake the website of the mosquito xe defines their product in three words liberty lightness accessibility and we couldn't agree more why because it offers you the liberty to travel wherever you want and not be dragged down by a heavy helicopter all while being accessible to almost everyone thanks to the starting price tag of just thirty thousand two hundred dollars the xe is equipped with an mz 202 60cv engine that has an empty weight of a measly 300 pounds and a total weight of the aircraft that comes to 600 pounds now don't go looking for lightning speed when it comes to the mosquito xc as this model has a crew speed of 65 miles per hour that's not at all bad if you ask me and yes the 451 fuel tank will allow you to stay airborne between 2.2 to 4 hours bye for now
