20 Insane Homemade Helicopters

Helicopters to design and build from scratch are very difficult and require a lot of expensive research & design. A helicopter kit from an established helicopter manufacturer can allow the average person to build and fly their own helicopter for around approximately $50,000 and 500 hours of assembly time. Here are the top 20 insane homemade helicopters.
1. Commuter 2
This insane homemade helicopter was basically the same sturdy airframe and drive components but with an attractive new streamlined cabin. Quite a few of these were also produced. It was in 1979 that CHR got its start, when company President Murray Sweet bought his first helicopter kit along with the Canadian rights to market the design. After completion of his Commuter IIB and successful flying helicopter test, Murray began making modifications in an effort to save weight, lessen maintenance and increase safety and dependability. It was were 22 feet long and only eight feet tall.
2. A600 Turbo
This homemade helicopter is an improvement on what was already the world’s best personal helicopter. In addition to being the most reliable helicopter kit on the market, the A600 Turbo combines an impeccable safety record with the industry’s best pricing. The A600 Turbo has a cruise speed of 95 mph and a VNE speed of 115 mph. It conveniently runs on 92 octanes or 110 LL fuel and has a range of 170 miles. Additionally, the all-new A600 Turbo has an average fuel consumption of 8 mph and a service ceiling of 11,500 miles. Rotorway currently offers the A600 Talon kit homemade aircraft for $89,730 which includes the engine and everything needed to get in the air.
3. Air Scooter coaxial helicopter
The original Sikorsky rotorcraft helicopter concept was based on a coaxial design much like the Air Scooter. Handlebar controls represent the most distinguishable feature of this Russian homemade helicopter. AirScooter’s patented design also provides an amazing level of stability while in the air and during flight. Pearson designed and engineered an ultra-light-weight 4-stroke engine specifically for AirScooter. After over two years of intense design and testing; the AeroTwin engine can easily produce 65 horsepower at 4,200 RPM and weighs in at less than 90 pounds dry.
4. Safari 400
Starting with the tech inmate “ingredients” of the SAFARI kit, a aerial vehicle Flight Ready SAFARI can be customized to your specifications including paint, interior, engine, avionics and accessories to create a helicopter that is uniquely yours. Hope you heard this technology news before. Finished at the level of quality you would expect from the producers of the Safari Complete Kit, your new Safari will be flight tested and truly “Ready for Fun”. Exterior height is 8 ft. 2 in and length: 33 ft. 5 in. The maximum speed is 100 knots.
5. Hummingbird 300L
The Hummingbird 300L is one perfect example of how to build a helicopter. It was born in 2018 as a wide-body, single-engine, single three-bladed main rotor type kit helicopter, with a two-blade tail rotor. Powered by an FAA approved Continental aircraft engine that boasts some very impressive performance numbers. The Hummingbird 300L was designed to be a certified helicopter, a real advantage over conventional Experimental kits. Its technology, performance, craftsmanship and safety record are unmatched. The price of the kit is $159,000.00. Though the engine is sold separately and can be purchased through Vertical Aviation Technologies.
6. Aeros
The Aeros self-built helicopter is one of the most superbly engineered single-place helicopters we have seen. The Plans manual offers page after page of highly detailed construction prints, photos and assembly instructions to guide the builder. This single-seat helicopter can be built in a well-equipped home shop. It features a bolt-together main frame and a conventional helicopter control system. The Aeros Homebuilt Helicopter is certainly a well-thought-out helicopter “of its time” and a proven flyer though it is hard to come by any flying examples other than the concept craft.
7. Koncepto Millenya
The Koncepto Milenya, or simply Milenya, is a concept for an ultra-light aircraft developed by Kyxz Mendiola. Often referred to as "the flying car" the aircraft was developed by its inventor as a means to cope with heavy road traffic in Manila. Kyxz Mendiola began developing Milenya in the early 2010s, using his own money to fund his project in its early years of development. Friends and relatives later helped him in his project. Millions of pesos and at least six years have been spent on the development of the aircraft.

Aw95 is something like I’d want to have!!

Thank you for the update, Ultimate Fact..!! They're super cool flying machines. I heard various passenger carrying drones are being manufactured for personal use around the world, and soon we'll be able to buy them. Flying around the city with drones will be similar to what we saw in that movie "Back to the Future Part II". 🤣
