Personal Helicopter Construction Plans

Here are the construction plans for a personal helicopter. This is not a gyro-style vehicle (gyrocopter), but a mini (personal) traditional helicopter.

Gyrocopters have a push motor in the back and a passive rotating wing as the main rotor. Because of this configuration, gyrocopters cannot take off vertically like helicopters. Instead, they take off like a normal airplane and need runway space.

This document describes a traditional helicopter. It has a single main rotor and an anti-torque tail rotor, both driven by the same engine. It can take off and land vertically.

The specifications are the following:

• Max. flight velocity – 95MPH
• Max. Altitude (service ceiling) – 12,500 feet (that’s 2.37 miles up or 3.8 Km)
• Engine – Rotax, 65hp
• Maximum Climb Rate – 1,100 feet/minute (or 18.3 feet per second)
• Maximum carrying weight (payload) with a full tank – 350 Lbs
• Max. Gross Weight – 700 Lbs [helicopter (325 Lbs), pilot (350 Lbs max.), and a full tank (25 Lbs)]
• Fuel Tank Capacity – 8 Gallons
• Full Tank Service Range – 80 Miles
• Take-Off Distance – 0 Ft.
• Landing Distance – 0 Ft.
• Seats – 1

As you can see from the specifications, it can fly at a maximum speed of 95 MPH, reach up to 12,500 feet (2.37 Miles or 3.8 km), and fly up to 80 miles on a full tank. The engine is a 65 hp Rotax engine, and the fuel tank has an 8-gallon capacity (gasoline). The climb rate is fairly good for its size. It is approx. 1,100 feet per minute, which means that you can get to the top of a 100-story building from the ground in about one minute.
