About the 07
The Ela Aviacion 07 is a Spanish gyrocopter series configured as a two-seat, tandem open-cockpit rotorcraft with a single main rotor and a pusher engine arrangement. It suits recreational pilots seeking a ready-to-fly aircraft equipped with tricycle landing gear and wheel pants.
The fuselage is constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel tubing paired with a non-structural carbon fiber and resin cockpit fairing and a triple tail. The design incorporates mechanical and pneumatic trim systems along with an optional forward baggage compartment. Several examples have been registered for operation with aviation authorities.
