Rotorvox C2A Gyro Debuts At Sun n Fun

0

Although autogyros in the U.S. aren’t quite the thing they are in Europe, a new one is being shown off this week at Sun ‘n Fun in Lakeland, Florida. The Rotorvox C2A, an all-carbon fiber design, is being pitched and an experimental amateur built aircraft for the U.S. market.

It’s powered by a turbocharged Rotax 914 engine and the company claims the C2A is one of the advanced gyrocopters in the world. With a large bubble canopy and side-by-side seating, the C2A has a unique twin-boom design. Although sold ready to fly in Europe, the U.S. lacks approvals for light sport aircraft in this category.

Instead, the C2A will be sold as a fast-build kit and will establish a customer support center with Flight Design USA in South Woodstock, Connecticut. That company markets and supports the Flight Design line of light sport aircraft. Rotorvox Aero is based in Broomfield, Colorado.
