Well Composite-FX has decided not to produce Mosquito Air kits for now since John Uptigrove passed away, so you would need to find one second hand. |

I was going to try to find plans for it and scratch build one. And then just buy the collective & tail components before the mosquito XE. I believe they are the same. But if I found a kit for sale that sure would make it a lot easier. I've only found one so far and it's flying, guy wants $25,000 for it. Found a mini 500 kit for $10,000 it has a lot of idle time and no actual flying time but those kits are kind of sketchy. I had one that was pretty solid my buddy had one that was pretty solid but there was a couple other ones that were local to the area and they were absolutely trash. it all depends on how well it was built because you obviously can't find those kits new anymore.only you have the power to make no difference! |

From what I can tell on the Mosquito Forum, they only sell parts to registered owners, so not sure if you could buy partial kits of just the mechanics. You would have to contact Composite-FX. They also seem to keep plans and instruction manuals close to their chest, only for registered owners. Seems people have been copying the helicopter already (China). |
