Build slots are assigned on a first come first serve basis in order of deposit received. Once you place your deposit, we will confirm your build slot timeframe. Typically build slots are 3-6 months from time of deposit.

The decision ultimately comes down to your budget and timing. Magni gyroplanes consistently hold the highest resale value in the industry, outperforming other brands when comparing new-to-used pricing.

Pre-owned models sell quickly and command strong prices—many owners report selling their gyro as much or more than they paid new, even after 200 - 500 hours on them.

Additionally, all new Magni gyroplanes include a two-year factory warranty, providing added peace of mind when weighing new versus used ownership options.

The Magni Gyro factory issues a full 2 year warranty.

The payment process can be broken into several steps, keeping in mind the total costs:

• Gyro Cost

• Shipping ($4000 estimate)

• Ready to Fly Package ($9000)

$15,000 Deposit
First, when you build and price your gyro, if you are ready to order, select “I’m Ready to Go,” and you will be directed to make a $1000 deposit via credit card. This $1000 will secure your place in line for 5 business days, and is refundable up to $50 to cover transaction fees.

You will simultaneously get an email with Wire or Check payment options to pay the $14,000 balance for your $15,000 deposit. This is refundable up to $500 to cover international transaction fees.

We will also call to confirm details and let you know your build slot month.

50% Balance
Second, your 50% balance of your gyro will be due the first of the month 90 days prior to your build month.

Final Balance & Shipping
Third, your final balance plus shipping costs are due the first of the month of your build month.

For Example: You order a $150,000 M24 in January, with an assigned build slot in July

Payments Example
$1000 Credit Card Payment: Paid Jan 5
$14,000 Wire: Due Jan 10
$60,000 Wire: Due April 1
$75,000 Wire: Due July 1
‍ ‍ Total Gyro Payments: $150,000

$4000 Wire for Shipping: Due July 1
$9000 Check or Wire for Ready to Fly Package: Paid ~ September

Our Ready to Fly Package takes the headache out of new aircraft registration, airworthiness, and Flight Testing, providing you the fastest way from build to flight.

It includes: De-Crating, Inspection, Re-Assembly, Placard Installation, Airworthiness Prep, DAR Fee, Transponder Certification, Task - Based Phase 1 Test Program, 25 Hour Inspection, Oil Change, Quick Drain Adapter and Install, Koger Sun Shade and Install (M24 only), Wifi Adapter and Install (Dynon models)

In other words, once you take flight it will be tested and ready for you to enjoy!

Though Magni gyroplanes are engineered with simplicity and reliability at their core, Magni has also built a worldwide reputation—especially in the U.S.—for exceptional support, maintenance, and parts availability. With a strong network of service centers and knowledgeable technicians, you can count on expert assistance to keep your aircraft performing flawlessly for years to come.

We provide a step by step process to reserve your N Number and get your aircraft registered in the US. We work closely with the FAA and pre-fill all documentation so paperwork is processed efficiently and accurately.

You can see if a specific N Number is available via this link, see if a set of n numbers is available via this link, and reserve one via this link.

Yes, our Ready to Fly Package includes the full airworthiness inspection and certification.

All Experimental Amateur Built (E-AB) aircraft (the majority of those registered in the US) require an initial testing period known a Phase 1 Flight Testing. This ensures the safety of the aircraft prior to training operations or carrying passengers, and is not optional.

Typically the required number of hours is 40 from the FAA, but the FAA allows individuals or organizations who have developed a Phase 1 Flight Test Program for their make and model to complete the flight testing based on the completion of a task based program via flight test cards. We have developed such a program and can complete your Phase 1 Flight Testing in typically under 25 hours.

So, yes, we can assist with this! It is included in the “Ready to Fly Package” pricing.

Yes, with sufficient planning ahead of time, we can ferry it to your airport following Phase 1 Flight Testing.

You may also elect to request your dealer help you fly it from our import location in Foley Alabama to your home airport. This could be an extremely fun and educational adventure for you.

If you would like to be part of the ferry flight, please reach out ahead of time to plan that with us or with your dealer.

Yes! A Sport Pilot can fly any gyroplane in the Magni lineup.

Yes, with proper instrumentation and lighting (typically all of the new configurations), these are safe and certified to fly at night.

In addition, with the passing of MOSAIC, a Sport Pilot with an FAA issued medical certificate (BasicMed, Third Class medical, etc) and an endorsement from an instructor will allow you to fly at night.

Yes! So long as your aircraft has the required instrumentation (such as a radio, transponder and ADSB-OUT) for that class of airspace, you may fly these into towered airports. Unless you elect to not have this equipment when purchasing, all new gyroplanes come with this equipment as standard.

We are a supportive group and understand situations arise that are outside a buyer’s control. Typically so long as we can fill your build slot with another buyer, we can refund your payments outside of fees and costs we incur due to your deposit. We have hundreds of happy customers who we can refer you to if you have any questions or concerns.

Rotax publishes a recommended TBO (Time Between Overhaul) for their engines, which serves as guidance rather than a strict requirement. Engines that are properly maintained and operated within normal parameters often continue running smoothly well beyond their suggested TBO, demonstrating the durability and reliability Rotax powerplants are known for.

Most pilots say they budget between $1000 - $3000 for annual maintenance costs, including the annual condition inspection. If you are the builder of record, and feel comfortable inspecting your aircraft, you can save on these annual costs by doing the work yourself.

Owners can choose between Liability Only coverage or a combined Liability and Hull policy. For most pilots under age 75, liability-only premiums range from approximately $2,500 to $3,500 annually. Hull coverage is based on aircraft value, pilot experience, and age, with total Hull + Liability costs typically between $5,000 and $8,000. Because gyroplanes represent a smaller share of the overall aviation market, underwriting data is limited—making premiums somewhat higher than those for comparably valued fixed-wing aircraft.

Gyroplane ownership can be broken into Operating and Fixed Costs, as well as reserve costs for replacing aging or worn parts.

We typically find that operating expenses such as fuel and oil run about $25–$35 per flight hour based on local fuel prices. The average gyro burns 4.5 - 7 gallons per hour. We also reserve $10–$25 per hour for engine, propeller, rotor and miscellaneous costs. Fixed expenses include hangar, insurance, and the annual condition inspection, though these costs will vary depending on your specific situation.

Yes, each of the Magni gyro models qualifies for MOSAIC and are all MOSAIC ready.

The FAA’s “Experimental” designation covers a vast range of aircraft—from simple, homebuilt projects assembled in a garage to highly engineered, factory-produced aircraft that undergo extensive testing and standardization. While the word “experimental” may sound like “untested” or “unproven,” within the aviation community it often represents innovation, safety, and rigorous engineering.

The FAA offers several paths for certifying aircraft as airworthy. One is what is called “Standard Airworthiness,” used for designs like Cessna, Piper, and Cirrus. However, achieving this certification places heavy administrative and financial burdens on more innovative aircraft categories—such as gyroplanes—making the standard route impractical.

To support innovation without imposing unnecessary costs, the FAA created the “Special Airworthiness – Experimental” category many years ago. This pathway provides manufacturers greater design freedom while still requiring robust engineering, testing, and oversight.

As a result, many of today’s most respected and widely flown aircraft are Experimental—combining innovation, proven performance, and exceptional safety while keeping ownership costs accessible.

Magni Gyroplanes exemplify this standard. With more than 1,600 aircraft flying worldwide, Magni is known for its safety, simplicity, reliability, and the pure joy of flight its gyroplanes deliver.
