Description
Wilco Aviation are pleased to have exclusively listed this stunning RotorSport UK Calidus currently located at Lee on Solent.
RotorSport Calidus is a German tandem two-seater autogyro modified in the UK to meet British Civil Airworthiness Requirements CAP643 Section T. The Calidus is an enclosed-cockpit development of the open-cockpit RotorSport UK MT-03. New-build AutoGyro Calidus aircraft are imported from the manufacturers, AutoGyro GmbH in Hildeshem, Germany and completed to British regulations by RotorSport UK Ltd.
This Calidus is powered by a 115 hp (86 kW) Rotax 914 UL Turbo giving extra power for those shorter take offs. Fuel capacity is either 39 litres in a single tank or 74 litres in two tanks. The Calidus has an aerodynamic fuselage pod, giving 20 knots higher maximum speed than the MT-03. While the open-cockpit MT-03 (which continues in production) is promoted as a “motorbike in the skies”, the Calidus is aimed at a different market. The Calidus’ fully enclosed cockpit protects the occupants from exposure to inclement weather, while the aircraft’s higher cruise speed makes it more suitable for long-distance touring.
The panel is equipped with conventional instruments complimented by the panel mounted Skyview GPS. A ground-adjustable propeller has been fitted and set up to give the best performance.
The Calidus has a take off distance of 10 to 70 metres and lands in 15 metres, or can land vertically in some circumstances. Flying speeds range from 20 mph (32 km/h) to 120 mph (193 km/h).
