Gyrocopter

What is a 

Gyrocopter 

• Gyrocopter looks like a small helicopter but the main 

difference is there is no engine turning the main rotor. 

The rotor simply self-propel 

• (which we call “auto-rotate”) due to the way that the air 

flows through them. 

• It also does not have a tail rotor. 

• As the engine is not connected to the rotors, this 

means that a Gyrocopter is not seriously affected if the 

engine should stop in flight. This, together with a very 

short landing roll (we can land in a very small open 

space, about the size of a putting green), means that a 

Gyrocopter is one of the safest methods of flying. 

• Today, Gyrocopters are one or two-seat airplanes 

whose maximum take-off weight does not exceed 

450kgs (560 kgs EASA). Modern Gyrocopters offer 

superb performance, comfort and above all have a 

safety record second to none in aviation 

• The next convenient difference to a helicopter is the 

price. It runs on unleaded petrol. 

• The running cost is 80 to 100 Euros an hour whilst that 

of a small helicopter will be in the region of 10 to 15 

times more.

MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN GYROCOPTERS 

AND OTHER AIRCRAFT KINDS ARE THE FOLLOWING, 

FOR THE SAME MAXIMUM TAKE OFF WEIGHT: 

Gyrocopter Helicopter Fixed Wings 

Cannot hover Can hover Don`t try hover 

Cannot take-off vertically Can take-off vertically Cannot take-off vertically 

Cannot land purely vertically Can land purely vertically Cannot land purely vertically 

Needs very short take-off strip Take-off strip not needed Needs take-off strip 

Needs its length to land Needs its length to land Needs a landing strip 

Very Little sensibility to turbulences Medium Little sensibility to turbulences Sensibility to turbulences 

Larger flight envelop than fixed wings Larger flight envelop Than fixed wings Limited flight envelope 

Easy to pilot Complex to Pilot Rather easy to pilot 

Excellent Maneuverability Superior Maneuverability Average Maneuverability 

Easy to Maintanace Relatively heavy Maintanace Relatively easy maintanace 

Less expensive than helicopter Rather expensive Slightly less expensive than gyrocopter 

Needs more power than fixed wing/trikes Needs a lot of power Needs less power than gyrocopter

Xenon 4 

Executive 

• Over the last 13 years the XENON became an icon for flying qualities. 

It is a combination of the highest standards of safety and ergonomics 

design. The cabin is manufactured from carbon into a one piece 

monocoque structure, similar to a Formula 1 racing car, providing 

additional safety to the Crew. The Xenon 4 Executive is the first class 

version to exceed all your expectations incorporating: 

• electric trim*, improved landing gear, new brakes and wheels, variable 

pitch propeller*, LED landing lights & strobes, cabin heating dual with 

thermostat*, new prerotation system (up to 250 rpm), noise abatement 

with new exhaust and aftermuffler*, 135 Hp improved power by a new 

constant torque turbo system. 

• It is supported by a professional team to ensure after sales service and 

maintenance to the clients i.e. with an online parts ordering system. 

• As well it is manufactured in an industrial manner, complying with 

ISO9001 procedures. The industrialization process now in place, allows 

a high level of precision and repetitive actions. 

• The newly designed Instrument panel has been created to correlate 

to professional avionics and GPS systems. The Cabin now offers 

a even more comfortable and spacious environment than ever 

before. In conjunction with its high cruising speed and the improved 

aerodynamics the new Xenon 4 could also be used for long distance 

travelling with ease, supporting you with a respective luggage 

compartment. 

• The comfortable and ergonomically shaped leather seats together with 

the high class internal finishing ensures that your flight is pleasant all 

the way. And the doors have been changed in Form, Size and Fixation.

Economics 

• As governments watch their helicopter fleet age and get more 

expensive, Celier Aviation innovates to bridge this gap. The C-44 

gyroplane can perform 90% of a helicopter mission at only 10% 

of the cost. This is a flying machine that maximizes savings while 

optimizing efficiency. The C-44 has been designed for this reason. 

Technology 

• The C-44 is a French design that is manufactured in the European 

Union. 

• It is truly an engineering work of art, built on the legacy of the 

Xenon. It is made of carbon in monocoque cabin technology. It is 

structurally built in one piece of material. All metal parts are made in 

an ISO 9001 facility using latest industrial machinary and protocols. 

It is indeed the next generation aircraft. 

Safety 

• The C-44 is built on the basics of the Xenon technology. 

• The main safety feature is the cabin. The main task of the cabin is to 

provide an enormously strong shell to which all other parts are fixed. 

This provides a huge safety for Crew. 

• Flexibility 

Multipurpose 

• The C-44 gives any commander the flexibility of action at an 

economical capital outlay and routine running cost. It is easy to 

operate, easy to maintain and above all, easy to convert from a 

configuration to another. 

• The C-44 was created as a response to modern days market needs. 

Celier Aviation has made numerous market studies on how gyroplane 

could be used for multipurpose missions. By listening to professionals, 

Celier Aviation came up with a gyroplane that can be easily tranformed 

from one configuration to the other in no time at all.

The Safety Side of the 

Xenon Gyrocopter 

Why the Xenon Gyro is the safest and best ultralight aircraft? 

The Cabin of the Xenon is an engineering work of art - is made of 

composite materials in monocoque technology which means that it is 

structurally built in one piece of material, just like Formula 1 cars. 

What is a monocoque? 

The Cabin is the main component of the machine. All the other 

components are mounted around the cabin. The main task of the cabin 

is to provide an enormously strong shell shape where by all other parts 

are fixed. This provides a huge safety for pilot in the event of an accident 

because the cabin is capable of withstanding the load many

Very important parts of the cabin structure are the “the ribs” as they have 

created an interesting safety feature. Raphael Celier is very keen observer, 

who likes to include features from nature in his design constructions. Another 

common practice of modern engineering is a technology we all know named 

“honey comb”. This is reproduced in industry which is extremely sturdy. Again 

this is found in our construction of the Xenon. Similarly, a blade of grass or 

spider thread are carefully studied by scientists who try to imitate their strength 

and properties, and apply them to modern designs and technologies. 

Raphael is also a fan of cinema and if you go back a few years we all 

admired the Jurasic Park and its computer-animated giant dinosaurs, when 

we experienced adventure with the heroes of the film, Raphael observed 

how the huge animals as they could move quickly. The result of these 

observations and thoughts is ... Xenon cabin mimic extremely durable the 

ribs the Tyranozaurus Rex. 

Aerospace Co-operants 

of Celier Aviation 

Celier Aviation received a letter of intent to partner with the NAC 

Malta in April 2014. 

The National Aerospace Centre (NAC) Malta was established by 

virtue of Legal Notice 68 of 2014 as enacted in the PUBLIC 

ADMINISTRATION ACT (CAP. 497) 

Statement by Celier Aviation regarding German certification of 

the Xenon 4 Gyroplane. 

All gyroplanes in Europe do not fall under the responsibility of 

the EASA for Airworthiness purposes but they fall under the 

direct governance of a country’s (member states) Civil Aviation 

Authority. 

Celier Aviation has opted to benchmark its certification process 

via the German Civil Aviation Authorities through the powers 

vested in the Deutscher Aero Club E.V. 

http://www.daec.de 

Other countries in Europe gladly accept the German standards 

and adopt them as their own. 

All certification process for the Xenon 4 has been processed 

through our company Celier Aviation Germany GmbH. 

Gyroplanes in Europe are considered to be Annex II Aircraft and 

for this they fly legally under what is known as a “Permit to Fly”. 

Below find an extract from the European Law that is in force. 

PDF File with entire Law is also attached. 

We proudly declare that we are the only 560 kg MTOW sideby-side 

Gyroplane to fly legally in Europe.
