It features a single main rotor and tail rotor, a single-seat enclosed cockpit with a windshield, skid landing gear and a two-cylinder, air-cooled, two stroke 64 hp (48 kW) MZ 202 engine. [1] The aircraft fuselage is made from composites and metal tubing. Its two-bladed rotor has a diameter of 5.95 m (19.5 ft) and a chord of 17 cm (6.7 in).
The engine is a lightweight, two-stroke, single cylinder Radne Raket 120 of 14 hp (10 kW) that produces power though a 3.5:1 belt reduction drive, with an extension shaft. Folding legs carry a large percentage of the unit's weights and protect the propeller during ground operations. The Mosquito is purchased as a complete harness assembly. [1]
Its two-bladed rotor has a diameter of 5.5 m (18.0 ft) and a chord of 17 cm (6.7 in). The cyclic control is routed via the centre of the rotor mast and the main rotor transmission is a poly "V" belt. The aircraft has a typical empty weight of 115 kg (254 lb) and a gross weight of 240 kg (529 lb), giving a useful load of 125 kg (276 lb).

Original helicopter "classes" were based on the engine size. For example, a helicopter with a 0.30 cu in (4.9 cm 3) engine was a 30 class and a helicopter with a 0.90 cu in (14.7 cm 3) engine was referred to as a 90 class helicopter. The bigger and more powerful the engine, the larger the main rotor blade that it can turn and hence the bigger ...
This prototype continued to use the short engine nacelles, single-piece trailing-edge flaps, and the 19 ft 5.5 in (5.931 m) "No. 1" tailplane used by W4050, but had production-standard 54 ft 2 in (16.51 m) wings and became the only Mosquito prototype to fly operationally.
The initial order was for 714 aircraft, but that was later increased to 1,300 with an option to buy another 114. Seventy helicopters were built in the first month. [citation needed] This agile, unarmed helicopter is outfitted with outboard "benches" designed to ferry up to 3 operators on each side. There is also a gunship variant, the AH-6.
The Turbomeca Arriel is a series of French turboshaft engines that first ran in 1974. [1] Delivering 650 to 1,000 hp (480 to 750 kW), over 12,000 Arriel engines have been produced from 1978 to 2018, logging more than 50 million flight hours for 40 helicopter applications.
