Transporting
I've been transporting Rotorway ships and kits for about fifteen years now. I have a custom trailer that I designed and improved over years of travel. My usual charge is $.95 per mile round trip Lake City, FL using MapQuest mileage estimates.
Build Assistance
I'm retired and have time (no cost/free) to assist builders with their projects. I prefer to work out of one of my hangers located at Cannon Creek Airpark, Lake City, FL. I charge $150 per month for hanger space. My intention is not to store projects but provide assistance to active projects. I have a two-bedroom apartment in one of the hangers reserved for builders during their building visits at $40 per night. There are also 2200+ hotel rooms in nearby Lake City offering more luxurious accommodations. I also have recently added a full hook up RV ($15 per night) parking site next to one of my hangers with access to the apartment facilities for showers and laundry.
Inspections
I am an A&P certified FAA artisan with the IA endorsement. I routinely accomplish annual Condition Inspections in accordance with RW guidelines. Usually, I can perform these required inspections pre or post Gathering dates if pre-scheduled and time allows. I have, on occasion, accommodated owners during my cross country travels.
Engine Rebuild
I recently developed the capability to rebuild and/or upgrade Rotorway engines. We have sourced most required parts from both RotorX and outside suppliers. The sub-shop can do cylinder upgrades, top overhauls and full rebuilds as requested by the client. Pricing is flat rated plus parts. Currently for a complete rebuild is $2000 (labor )plus parts. The parts would include connecting rod bearings, rings, head & base gaskets and valve rework by a commercial machine shop. Part costs vary depending on source and vendors.
Paid Builder Assistance
I currently have several artisans/experienced individuals that are willing to take on various repair or upgrade tasks on the various model Rotorways for a fee. Their fees are individually negotiated depending on task, location and timeline. Fees can be hourly or by the job. Due to the fact that the skilled labor have full time employment elsewhere I recommend to use "piece work" for payment. Again, all terms are to be negotiated prior to any work starting. Additional expenses would include: hanger/apartment rent, parts and any additional outside contract work, i.e. welding, painting or machining.
