Advance Tactics and RotorX have unveiled the ATRX-700, a $188,000 two-seat, fly-by-wire helicopter.
It's designed for ease of flight, requiring only a driver's license, medical, and 30 hours of training.
This accessible offering is made possible by the upcoming MOSAIC regulations, which expand the Light Sport Aircraft designation to include helicopters.
