Design and development
The M-14 features a single main rotor, a two-seats-in a tandem open cockpit with a windshield, tricycle landing gear with wheel pants and a four-cylinder, air and liquid-cooled, four-stroke, dual-ignition 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912S engine in pusher configuration. The turbocharged 115 hp (86 kW) Rotax 914 powerplant is optional.[1]
The aircraft fuselage is made from TIG-welded 4130 steel tubing, while the cockpit fairing is fibreglass. Its 8.23 m (27.0 ft) diameter composite rotor has a chord of 22 cm (8.7 in) and is manufactured in house by Magni Gyro. The propeller is a three-bladed carbon fibre, ground adjustable type. Electric trim is standard equipment, as is a Flydat digital engine monitor. The second seat is located right behind the pilot's seat without a separate cockpit, dual controls or windshield and is intended for occasional use to carry a passenger. The pilot's seat includes an integral 50 litres (11 imp gal; 13 US gal) fuel tank that provides three hours endurance. The aircraft has an empty weight of 244 kg (538 lb) and a gross weight of 550 kg (1,213 lb), giving a useful load of 306 kg (675 lb).[1][2]
