M16 Xtreme

The Magni M16 is the trusted benchmark for open-cockpit gyroplane flying. Designed for reliability, simplicity, and agile maneuverability, the M16 offers pilots an exhilarating open-air experience with the stability and precision Magni is known for. Its tandem seating ensures excellent visibility and communication between pilot and passenger (or instructor and student), making it a favorite for training and adventure flying alike. With robust Italian craftsmanship, a proven Rotax powerplant, and impeccable flight characteristics, the M16 delivers pure, responsive performance that keeps pilots connected to the sky while often flying only a few feet above the ground.

The M16 sets itself apart from the M22 in that it is the lowest cost option, but includes a rear stick and pilot controls for a copilot or training experience.

Xtreme M16

The Xtreme version of the M16 was the original Xtreme. The M16 has always been known for its agility and maneuverability in the air, but now, when paired with massive tires on a 4130 chromoly steel frame, it is considered the safest, most fun, and overall best backcountry aircraft on the market. The Fox shock on the nose wheel and the 21-inch smooth tundra tires on the main wheels let you go practically anywhere you can imagine. Pilots also note that there is little effect on cruise speed, making the Xtreme version of the M16 by far the top-selling M16 variant.
