I believe it was Neil Armstrong who when asked, "What went through your mind just before the Apollo launch?".
His response was, "The main thought was that 'Here I am sitting at the top of something that was made by a bunch of the lowest bidders.'"

omg - wish i could afford one o these!!! - absolutely great gyro :goodvibes::goodvibes::goodvibes:

Nice turning radius.

I slip my ride on lawn mower blades every time ,  i obviously am a natural ready for an upgrade 😂

The new shape of the fuselage is very nice looking.

So nice to see the M2 update. Spoke with Jim and he is so fun to talk to. Great vision.

That machine has come a long way.  Beautiful.

These are beautiful and amazing machines. I just love the first class engineering, it is oozing out of these Sport copters. A real advance, a real flying machine.

Excellent video and a big thanks to Jim for sharing a ride on his stunning M2. Beautiful machine !

How cool is that. He was a customer of mine  back in the 90's-2000's so happy to see him still at it. I'll have to plan a trip up to say hi

Now that's a GYRO Mate !!

I want one!!!

Why have we Not seen any new videos/ “Progress” with the “Sportcopter” since this video / 2022 ? This aircraft really appeals to me , so many thoughtful wise design choices.

Great video

I made a call 35 years ago to Jim, his father Chuck answered the phone, told me to come on down "We'll show you all about". That day changed my life! Super great to see the result of dedicated perfection Jim!!!
Comprehensive independent thinking always made Vanek's machines special.....a "Thinkings Mans" (or women) choice for sure!
Best to you, Kelly & family Jim.

A Sport Copter M2 base airframe kit is priced starting at $98,000 USD. Depending on your chosen engine (such as a Rotax or Aeromomentum), avionics, and builder assistance programs, a fully equipped build budget typically ranges from $150,000 to $180,000+ USD
