Mosquito XET Turbine helicopter – the flagship model of the five Mosquito ultra light and experimental personal light helicopters. With a purchase price of just over $40,000 and total operating costs of just over $30 per hour this is the most economical high performance jet helicopter available.

The XET can be used for personal and business transportation, training and extraordinarily inexpensive turbine time building, mustering, aerial imaging, law enforcement patrol, pipeline and power line surveillance, agricultural spraying in confined areas and a host of other applications where a single place light helicopter is applicable.

In the USA the Mosquito XET falls under the experimental category and is built as a kit. For other markets ROTOR F/X also provides a Ready Built model ready to fly for just over $50,000 which can be shipped worldwide.

The Mosquito XET turbine helicopter comes equipped with the advanced MGL Avionics EFIS glass cockpit providing an array of features and capabilities such as moving maps, terrain awareness, full systems management and health monitoring, airport plates, GPS, altitude heading reference, 3D synthetic terrain with highway-in-the-sky navigation, traffic monitoring, route manager and flight data recorder.

The Mosquito XET helicopter is one of five different Mosquito helicopters offered including two ultra light helicopters that do not require any license or flight medical to fly in the USA (the Mosquito AIR and Mosquito XEL). The remaining three models fall under the experimental category and require either a private helicopter or fixed wing license or alternately a recreational helicopter license (the Mosquito XE, Mosquito XE3 and Mosquito XET).

ROTOR F/X LLC also provides flight training specifically for ultra light and experimental helicopters as well as all standard private and commercial helicopter ratings. Our helicopter school is the only ultra light helicopter training facility in the world and our experimental-private course for all experimental helicopters is unique as well.
