Design and development
The A600 Talon is a development of the RotorWay Exec and externally resembles the earlier design. The A600 incorporates a different structure, a shaft-driven tail rotor, taller and longer landing skids and a new in-house developed turbocharged powerplant.
The A600 features a single main rotor, a two-seats in side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit with a windshield, skid-type landing gear and a turbocharged four-stroke, 147 hp (110 kW) RotorWay RI 600S engine that drives the 25 ft (7.6 m) diameter two-bladed rotor and conventional 50.25 in (127.6 cm) diameter two-bladed tail rotor. The aircraft has an empty weight of 965 lb (438 kg) and a gross weight of 1,500 lb (680 kg), giving a useful load of 535 lb (243 kg). With full fuel of 17 U.S. gallons (64 L; 14 imp gal) the payload is 433 lb (196 kg).
The aircraft is capable of an in ground effect hover at 6,000 ft (1,829 m) and an out of ground effect hover at 4,000 ft (1,219 m)
