The price of a helicopter varies widely depending upon which type you choose to buy, but prices for used helicopters rarely start below $60,000 for personal crafts. New helicopters are far more expensive. Most lower end models cost over a million dollars. The cost of a helicopter depends upon several factors. These include whether it is new or used, how large it is and the model of the aircraft itself.
The most common personal helicopter is the Robinson R22, which starts around $150,000. Used helicopters naturally cost less to purchase, but they typically incur higher repair and maintenance costs that would negate any savings achieved by buying a used model.
