omg it's like the mini bike version of a helicopter love it
except your mini bike motor did not cost 60,000.00 as a rebuilt........
I appreciate the detailed inside video of the instrument panels. We were drooling at the Mosquitos on the internet at flight school. Pretty freaking awesome. I just wish the cheaper UL helis with 2 seats were still supported. That was some beautifully controlled flying.
This guy seems very thorough, honest and concise in his descriptive assessment of this single-seater.
If I had the qualifications and money........I'd snap it up in an instant.
Impressive performance figures for 100hp. Gorgeous bird!
Nice flight. I've been wanting one of these for years now.
Awesome helicopter !! I would love to have one just like it.. It has everything, Flir, all the avionics, gps, jet powered, very responsive to input from pilot.. Much more power than the wimpy original.. You could actually travel with this great toy...
I'm very impressed with this chopper. You're doing a great job with the sales pitch. Very attractive.
Wow! I loved it! God bless those men who do everything to improve the lives of men! Who knows, the Mosquito saves someone's life or something, being more than a modern and practical transportation! Congratulations! Great video! :)
I have an XBOX and my dads riding lawnmower to trade if interested.
ha ha ha
How much
crabtrap 😂😂😂💀💀👻
REALLY Guinea??? how about i throw in a sarcastic sandwich with a side of humor
Crabtrap, How about a fully loaded BMW M2 for the small helicopter, and we call it even.
That was one heck of an approach at around 10:00. Is the pilot military trained? Fancy flyin' all around. He made it look so fluid and effortless. Great vid!
Beautiful, sounds like a real one. Turbine prop is so much more reliable than gasoline.
I congratulate you on building a fine heli. Wish I could afford one someday.
For all the people who keep asking if you need a licence to fly it all I can say is if you fly a helicopter without training you will likely die soon.
Not "likely". Its almost a guarantee.
Within 5 minutes.
Amazing how many truly STUPID people are out there. These things require exacting and precision coordination and control. Much more difficult to learn to fly than an airplane. Much more.
@@danbaltizar6346 Something a typical helicopter fanboy would say lmao
Austin Harper 💀
I'll take it! Beautiful machine. I really want to take one of these for a spin.
Already test flight one mate.... they are dangerous
@@benos4x4adventures49 How are they dangerous?
@@smnsmts1916 It's a fucking helicopter lmao, and a small one at that.
@@Chironex_Fleckeri you
Sounds amazing!
Sweet video flying R/c helicopters for years love to have 1
Oh yes, just love helicopters. I have a dozen hobby grade rc collective pitch helicopters that I fly regularly. Took me years of flight simulation and actual flight to master hovering and orientation. If I were not a retiree I would be the first to line up and offer to buy your jetcopter. On an rc helicopter the cheapest turbine engine is $3500 that can power a 1/10th scale helicopter. If I had your helicopter you will only find me in the air every chance I get.
Must be very cold up there with no doors..
Im pretty sure it has doors😂
flux gaming door kit is extra 🤓
How much for it
No doors
Frosty arms
Great vid! Fantastic LOH.. Well set-up piece of equipment - great job.... Flying it, you remind me of me and a thousand others back in the '68 time frame, passing through Ft. Wolters, WOC Primary Rotor Wing Flight School..... (you tube: "Chopper Pilot") While I'm not in the buying position, I really do thank you for showing the rest of us, how to fly again.... Great Touch Control!!!! Again, Thanks! Gordon
Damn, he's got a fine touch on that thing. Super smooth.
only the learned would recognize that statement...............
Perfect use after grocery shopping
But not *for* grocery shopping. He has the aux tank, so there is no baggage.
I have the money. Dont have the balls. Im fascinated by these, but scared to death of heights.
I have the balls but no money, we can trade
Lol same if I had money I would instantly buy one of these
Bruh. Same here man! Besides me being dick in the dirt broke lmao
Marc Barber 7hj
Give me the money.. I have the balls 😂..
N556Z, that's a kickass registration number
It's so CUTE! Peak hour traffic to and from work becomes a non issue but where to park it? That would be the head scratcher. Thanks for posting ;)
In 1930… This would've been amazing!
In 1930… This would've been from the future.
How does it perform for hedge trimming?
+RT VL Great, just be sure to replace rotors after each use! Oh, and be sure to add the optional 'inversion lawn & hedge care kit'... personally, I found electric hedge trimmers from LOWE'S to be more efficient. Strange, I know, so maybe it's just me!?! ;-)
+RT VL hahahahaha
I like it, n how much are you selling Bro??? Here my email address
Mickykarash@gmail.com thank you
RT VL. Hope so, come in handy.
You did a outstanding job on it.....
I'm more of a plane guy, but that is one sweet little helicopter !
Option for doors?
There are optional doors if you wish.
10-12gph, holy damn that's a thirsty little thing.
Yucannt Hahvitt. It burns about 1 gallon every 4-5 minutes.
Unfortunately, most helicopters are extremely inefficient. I fly UH-60s and an really good burn rate is around 125 gallons an hour and I have seen it go as high as 165-170 gal per hour when we are heavy. Funny thing, the engine for this mosquito is the same as our apu.
It's called a mosquitoe!!👌🤣
Turbines guzzle the fuel. But they're smooth, light yet powerful, and theoretically more reliable due to less moving parts or whatnot..... Plus, they sound cool.
Jet,my friend.....................
Mosquitos are such a cool design of aircraft. This one has a great spec and is in beautiful condition. I had to pause my fixed-wing training a while ago for a number of reasons.... but the more I learn about Mosquitos, the more I'm thinking of going Rotary.
Take a ride over to Arizona and get a ride in the Rotorway.You won't believe it !! Nice kit for around 100,000.00$
Absolutely beautiful machine great stuff
Are their doors and a heater for that thing for winter flying?
Nathan Drake 😄😂yeah right I thought riding in the winter would be the perfect time to fly that chopper
Man... If the fuel consumption was a better and had somewhere to put a bag or a second seat I'd prob get one. Still it's really cool
Tommy Ohlrich there are more models with compartments and a second seat one in development
About 2 hours on 20 gallons give or take isn't that bad.
Just install a nuclear reactor. You'd stay in the sky forever.
Those swash plates are beautiful.
Stunning!!!!
Well seeing as how I can't afford the gas for the helicopter I think I'll see what else is on CZcams to waste my time on . . .
+Zentura True, if you can't afford the Jet A, but this video isn't for millionaires though. This machines price is within the range of a middle class joe.
Chillbro Swaggins yup.
.
+bRad “bRadicalMagic” Nichols
Don't feel bad bRad, I can't afford the bandaids!
If you can waste $$ for a vehicle,you can pay for this.. $2 to 2.25 per gal for kerosene. Jet-A is $3-4 a gal.
what diameter tree will this chop down and keep flying? I seem to have trouble with my RC heli not sure if I'm ready for one of these yet...
It's probably 1,000 times easier to fly than an RC one. At least the non self hovering ones. Maintenance, however....
Looks very well taken care of . "Clean"
Love that turbine sound with the Whop Whop. Nice job on the chopper. Good luck.
I currently build these for 8K but you include your own turbine for now......I will have access to new engines soon.
pdoggy10inch I'm interested in one of your builds, I can get a rotax engine free... Do you have a website I could look at to see your work?
no sir as I am currently in process to build proto type.....more to follow....
Przyszłościowa branża, latanie dla prawie każdego. Ciekawe, ze jeszcze nikt tego nie produkuje seryjnie na sprzedaż jak samochody.
Incredible pilot !👍
Nice job flying, pretty cool skeeter.
Any rescue system? Forced ejection chute, burst-inflatable shock absorption bags/structures, etc.? What about autorotation (steady vertical velocity value)? Amazing thing. Thanks for video.
schabanow 😂dude youd right into the blades if u were ejected from it😂😂😂
These autorotate very very well as they're less than 300lbs.
Autorotation would be unforgiving since not much mass in rotor.
U DUMBASS! You’d get ejected into the fucking blades you fucktard
@@JacksonRig lmao
WoW. I just looked up your listing on this Heli. I wish I had the $$$ for it. I would buy that without a second thought
Uncle BoBo how much was it listed for?
U can get a similar masquito type heli for a minimum of 17 k maximum 100k
How much was it listed for?
@uncle bobo, how much was it listed for ?
2:30 Why did the Fuel meter go from 8.5 - 8.4 - 8.3 - / - 7.5? Is that normal when flicking through the LCD screens?
Awesome flying buddy
Somebody loan me $66k....im good for it lol
Its not even worth 66K.
Nick Hahn
its $48,000 brand new
Everyday entertainer. This model, the XET is $66,000USD brand new. The owner then put a few "options" on it. The pricing is clearly stated on the website.
Nice hellicopters
MilesDei fully assembled they're only $55,000. I will buy it and you give me $66,000 with interest .
Just wonderin', what licenses are required to fly this heli? I assume you would need your wings?
The minimum requirement to fly this helicopter is a Private Pilot's License.
Velatorix What about Rotorcraft certification? I have my single engine complex over land PPL (I can fly a single engine reciprocating, with a constant speed prop and retractable gear. I do not fly Rotors.
awesome video homie
Sick!!!!!!!love it
isn't a mosquito xet an ultralight? they should require no license/ nor registration to operate.
There are only two models of the Mosquito that qualify as ultralights, and they are all lighter weight and have piston engines. All other models of the Mosquito, including the XET, require a private pilot license, airworthiness certificate, and registration to operate.
Turbines burn jet fuel...BUT since this one is a turban it most likely runs on curry.
"isn't a mosquito xet an ultralight?"
No. The Mosquito Air and Mosquito XEL are ultralights, but the XE, XE-285, and XET (and the upcoming 2-seat Mosquito Swift) are EABs.
Isn't it considered slavery to force a turban to power your helicopter?
Even if it's a lightweight one...
That *any* aircraft can be flown legally with no license or registration is amazing. You need registration just for a little boat in Florida, or a scooter for that matter.
What happens if that belt breaks while your flying a 1000 ft up?
Ian Manghamm, oh no. That no good.
Nathan Drake you auto rotate down, unless gears in transmission converter locked up. Either way, you come down. Maybe live through auto rotate. It'll hurt, and you'll break ur neck and back, legs, ankles, arms maybe, but you might live.
You enjoy the ride.
You scream.
There are 2 belts stacked for redundancy and no transmission the belts are the transmission there is a slipper clutch that starts to engage at 40% and at 60% is fully engaged
Pilot skills on point..
Great job flying.
I noticed the main rotors are belt driven. Wonder how reliable and safe is a belt-drive?
You need to learn to change your belt-drive "on the go"
You should ask Robinson helicopters how reliable the belt drive system is. Every model they've built up until now has been belt driven.
I was wondering the same thing about the belts. Could you also change the gear ratio? I don't know why anyone would want to but I was just curious.
Philip Bothma not too uncommon for a heli to be belt driven. however the bigger machines have more then one engine so if one goes out, you still good enough to make it home. similar to how boats have two or more engines (thus multiple engine belts)
Also the Hughs 300 and Enstroms have belt driven for many years, nothing new and well proven.
Experimental... that’s not really my choice of brand name when it comes to a vital helicopter part.
This helicopter is considered experimental. There is a reason for that.
SOOOOOOOOOOOO....EFFIN' .....Cool. Want one, want one , want one. Love the birds!
Nice set up.
could it possible lets say you fly to protect your land and there is intruders could you shoot for a while when you fly?
that's what the little joystick is for... It's got several kinds of rockets... That takes care of things pretty fast...
jirka merunka that heli aint got rockers what you think this is far cry
Hail Sithis :)
kissa paska
DS i aint care about laws i asked if it possible like if you shoot for moment and the heli flip coz you left the stick
Why is yours worth 66K ? I see them for less on the website.
On the website you see the price for the kit only, which comes with no engine (+$15,000) or any of the extra accessories or avionics mine has ($6,000+). The kit price also does not cover labor expenses if you have the factory build it for you ($8,000). You can not build a new helicopter to my spec for what my list price is. You may have been looking at the piston versions of this helicopter, which have the same body, but are much cheaper because they do not have a turbine engine, or a lot of the avionics or accessories this one has onboard.
Your aircraft was magnificent, whoever bought it got a great deal. Did you get another one? Or maybe a larger one with two seats? What was the range with just 20 gals.?
It is worth spending more on a turbine engine because it may literally save your life
Beautiful Helo. Good work.
Nice flying!!!
Can you tell me if the bird was used in any illegal activity? No specifics. Need to know if I will need to add weapons such as a sub-machine gun or rockets. Thanks.
wheres the doors lolol..
with doors it 60k...without doors 40k haha
@@jenghiscanlui5097 20k for doors 😑
Awesome!
Ah yes, finally the flying coffin, we’ve all been waiting on.
new they like 40k i’m gonna sell my house then live in the sky
@@bigboss9323 wtf
Bantham Nobilis ?
Build the wall
Dude, how much fun was that to build? I've always wanted to buy one of these. Rad little helo dude!
really nice machine, well looked after - and you fly really nicely too, so smooth - you make the machine look good. What do you get to replace the Mosquito?
I'll give you 2 dollars and a Casio watch for it. Whadya say?
Does the watch keep good time?
Deal
@@jetcarddude I'm not sure but I would be willing to bet that it probably dead on the money at least twice a day for some time zone somewhere lol
I'm afraid I'll have to say ... goodnight
Too bad I'm poor. As much as I like it, I could only get a loan if it was selling for $720.00. Otherwise I'm on the sidelines.
John Ratko 😂
Beautiful machine. I hope to have one just like it within the year. Love that avionics package but I will add some old fashioned gauges down below as well. Was that a factory built machine or did you build it?
You did a great job. Nice looking machine. I like the turbine. Should be more reliable than the piston engine they usually have, in theory. I fly Astars, but always looked at these in wonder when I was a kid. For those who said that seems expensive, I guess they dont realize how much helicopters really cost, especially with a turbine engine. The one I am flying is now going for around 3 million and its not a huge machine.
O my god il swop my mrs for it, she's pretty and Philippino and doesn't like my jokes. No mrs I'm not joking that is cheaper to run than you. Nice body, so has the mozzeee
Stephen Howlett 1 year later and nobody’s liked ur comment reply of ur not dead yet
Very nice presentation and apparently a well taken care of helicopter, but what is distracting are the number of troll dummies making comments that are wasting your time with their stupid remarks and thinking they are funny jokes. America has really accepted the dumbing down mentality, you can see it in action at Trump rallies (and here too).
youtube is accessed globally you peanut brain
He's right, except for bringing in Trump (better than Hillary). Everyone thinks they are a comedian and it gets old. Some of us are pilots and interested in actually flying.
@John - Whatever it is, add your fucking comment dumbass, cause you aint buying it.
Dummies? Uh, that would be Hillary and Breadline-Bernie supporters who max out their credit cards in donations to leftist causes of surrender.
Maybe that's you too.
Nah man, you got it wrong. It's the liberal loons that are dumbed down. Their economic policies, welfare state agenda, and social justice lunacy has done an incredible amount of damage, that the rest of us have to deal with and try to repair. And why the hell is Hillary still walking around free?
That is so cool...I would love to fly it..
I went to the companies website to find that your helicopter is the one featured for the photos of the XET.
Great Video! Great Helicopter! but I have never seen so many stupid comments on a youtube video by the viewers. about 10 people asked how much it is... LOOK at the listing fools! So many other stupid comments about why this why that, you guys are obviously not pilots. My gosh do some research before you bug this great guy to death with all the dumb questions. BTW some very good questions as well. I just normally see great questions from aviation related videos, but I guess something like this draws in a lot of Non-pilots.
The reason for the stupid comments is you don't need a license to troll on CZcams.
Joe Glenn Watch out people! A wild smart arse is near!
If you don't like the comments, stop reading when you get to that part. Or keep trying to make everyone else agree with you, and find out how your quality of life morphs.
Love the black!!!
O I love it, it's beautiful
I’m getting one of these when I’m older. 🚁
I feel in love with your mosquito has it sold yet
turban hahaha too funny- turBINE-glad you sold it nice looking machine
Beautiful.
Nice looking machine!
Nice video🚁
Good mosquito job 👍👍👍. Thanks.
Im fascinated with this machine!
WOW 100+mph that's surprising to me actually, such an insanely small vehicle I bet 100 mph feels fast at the right altitude
Good set down. I judge people by their set downs.
That’s badass !!!!
Words can't describe how much I want one
Very nice, looks asum.
What a awesome machine. I have been riding superbikes for a long time and closing in on 60 years old. How hard is it to learn to master these. Maybe it is time to start to slow down on the bikes and do something else?
makes that piston powered Beta look huge!
Retreating Blade Stall. Never had the opportunity to experience it flying Black Hawks.
I took my Cessna to have some work done. Mechanic had a Mosquito in the shop with a Rotax engine. He said builder had $80,000 in his and had yet to fly it. FAA just certified it.
You have to get your helicopter license to fly it.
DOPE I'LL TAKE ONE!!
