Sport Copter 2

The Sport Copter 2 is an American two-seat autogyro designed and built by Sport Copter of Scappoose, Oregon. Made of bolted dural tubes and a carbon fiber shell, the Sport Copter 2 is a fully enclosed autogyro with removable doors and side-by-side seating for two. The prototype was powered by a 160 hp Subaru 2.2-litre 4-cylinder engine, but was subsequently upgraded to the Lycoming IO360. The Lycoming IO320 may also be fitted.

The Sport Copter 2 may be configured as either a standard category autogyro, requiring a pilot's license and FAA medical, or it may be configured with a smaller engine (IO320) and fixed-pitch propeller for operation under Light Sport rules.

The Sport Copter 2 is currently classified as an experimental aircraft, and is available in kit form. The design may be certified at an unspecified date in the future, pending availability of funds.

Originally under development in the late 1990s as a tandem-seat aircraft, the company reported three kits had been delivered by 1998.

As of May 2012, the design was being finalized for production.
