The SkyCop is a new breed of gyrocopter lifted to the standards of LSA

certification and superior to all other models on the market

What is a Gyrocopter?

A gyrocopter is a hybrid between an airplane

and a helicopter

A helicopter’s uplift and forward trust are both

provided by the horizontal rotor. An airplane’s

forward trust is provided by the vertical

propellers, the uplift by fixed wing aerodynamics

With a gyrocopter, forward thrust is provided by

a vertical rotor (as with a plane’s propeller) and

uplift is provided by the horizontal rotor which is

driven by aerodynamic forces alone

Deployability of competitor models is limited

Gyrocopter producers are focused on the

sports segment, not governmental agencies

Products are built out of common materials (not

according to aerospace standards)

Do not meet requirements for an LSA licence,

thus need domestic licensing in every country

Comparably poor performance parameters with

relatively long take-off and landing distance,

limited payload and little protection and comfort

for the pilot

The SkyCop has overcome all

technical limitations

The Skycopter is designed to meet all regulatory

requirements to achieve global licensing:

JAR-OPS & 21

LSA with FAA

It is build out of advanced aerospace materials

and high-tech components:

Proprietary rotor technology is at the core

of the superior flight performance

Single piece carbon rotor blades

Frame made of aircraft steel

Body made entirely of carbon

Strong and reliable engine

Ergonomic cockpit design

Modern cockpit instruments

Optional autopilot (HDI /ALT and GPS)

Optional closed cockpit (hardened glass)

Optional hardened cockpit

It can be customised to carry up to 160kg of

special purpose capability enhancing equipment


Currently, we are offering two Skycopter models, the one seater “SkyCop/01”

and the two seater “Matrix”

One seater “SkyCop/01” closed version Two seater “SkyCop/02” open version

Universal multi-purpose aerial platform

Designed for deployment in governmental

law enforcement agencies and selected

commercial organisations

Superior payload, range and other general

flight performance parameters

Can be customised and loaded with high-

tech equipment to meet almost any specific

capability requirements and purposes

The SkyCop/01 is available in an open and

closed cockpit version

Predominantly deployed for training purposes

Similar flight performance parameters but

reduced payload (second person on board)

Within this payload limitation, can be

customised and loaded with high-tech

equipments for specific tasks

Specifically if the task requires a human

observers / coordinator / commander on

board

The SkyCop/02 is currently available only in

an open cockpit version

The SkyCop is a universal airborne platform with a wide field of potential

applications for governmental agencies and commercial organisations

Selected uses / capabilities

Surveillance operations: either directly by the

pilot and/or supported with high-tech equipment

such as day light and/or IR cameras

Reconnaissance operations: monitoring of

inaccessible areas (drug war, international

monitoring missions) supported by equipment

including infrared detection

Guidance of ground operations: supporting

police forces in crowd control (loaded with AIR

Pass Loudspeaker systems) and traffic control,

monitoring coastlines, harbours and national

borders

Monitoring operations: environmental /

pollution monitoring, wildlife control, forest fire

prevention

Infrastructure maintenance operations:

detecting weaknesses in pipelines and power

line structures

Selected users / deployability

Police forces: traffic control, crowd control,

special forces surveillance operations (drug war,

insurgencies)

Border guards: surveillance of large and/or

inaccessible border areas, guidance of ground

operations

Coast guards: monitoring of shore lines and

harbours, conducting searches

International missions: Peace support and

observer missions (monitoring / securing large

areas and ceasefire lines)

Fire police: proactive monitoring of fire

endangered forests, fighting large scale fires

Other civil tasks: Disaster and emergency

control, environmental control, emergency

medical support etc

Oil/Gas/Electricity industry: pipeline

monitoring, power line control

Adding in its superior economics, the SkyCop is an ideal platform for law

enforcement agencies

The Skycopter’s total cost of ownership is superior to anything on the

market, offering a true alternative to comparably expensive helicopters

A SkyCop replacement of a helicopter will have amortised itself within less

than 2 years of service, based on the operating cost differential alone

Purchasing cost

Operating cost

Training cost

The basic Skycopter platform is three times cheaper than even the cheapest light

helicopter

Customisation / loading with special purpose equipment will not fundamentally

change the price advantage versus an equivalently customised helicopter

The Skycopter is fuelled by standard gasoline and require less than half the amount

It needs maintenance only every 100 flight hours (versus every 25 of a helicopter)

and is much easier to maintain (a good car mechanic can do the job)

Operating cost s are about 90 Euro per hour, versus at least 360 Euro for a

helicopter

At least 3 times cheaper than a comparable helicopter


The training of a helicopter pilots takes 3-6 months and costs between 15,000 Euro

and 30,000 Euro

The training of a Skycopter pilot takes 25 days (between 5,000 and 10,000 Euro)

Skycopter pilots do not require the same physical/mental fitness as helicopter pilots



The SkyCop is easy to transport, easy to maintain and easy to operate;

furthermore it is highly reliable and environmentally sustainable

The SkyCop is highly robust and resilient to hardship in the field

Easy Portability

Minimal operating

logistics

Environmentally

sustainable

Comfortable and

safe to fly

Modular structure facilitates shipping with standard ship-containers

With folded-in rotor and because of low weight, can be easily

transported by a standard pick-up truck on shorter distances

Simple modular design and use of standard car gasoline engine

allows maintenance by a well-trained car mechanic

Ruggedized build of airplane steel frame and carbon body

Ergonomically build around the pilot

Will stay in the air after a motor failure because of auto gyration

Much easier to fly than a helicopter

16 liters of premium automotive gasoline per hour versus 100 liter

aviation 100LL gasoline or JET/A1 per hour for a proper helicopter

Carbon footprint similar to that of a car make it the most

environmentally friendly airborne platform available


Given its high performance and superior economics, the SkyCop is a credible

replacement of helicopters

Many law enforcement tasks which have been deemed too expensive to

carry out with helicopters are economically viable deploying Skycopters

85 % of the

capabilities

of a helicopter

20% of the total

cost of ownership

of a helicopter

Robust multi-purpose

platform, loaded to
