MTOnautic
A gyroplane on floats that takes off from and lands on water — flying without limits.
Flying without limits
Flying means freedom. Flying gyros means pure freedom. But flying the MTOnautic is limitless. Equipped with floats, the MTOnautic takes off from and lands on water, connecting the elements like no other. A lake, a bay or a stretch of coast becomes your airfield.
A thoughtful adaptation of the MTOsport
Designed to maximise fun and flexibility, this adaptation of the MTOsport is as free and versatile as it is technically well thought through. It opens up completely new ways to use a gyroplane. Whether in Scandinavia or the United Arab Emirates, on a private or commercial basis — the MTOnautic takes you where you want to go.
