The company specialized in the design and manufacture of helicopters in the form of the Ultrasport line of kits for amateur construction in the homebuilt aircraft and the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles categories.[1][2][3][4] The company was formed before 1998 and seems to have gone out of business by 2010.[5] The company's first product was the American Sportscopter Ultrasport 254, a single-seat helicopter with an empty weight of {{convert|254|lb|kg|0|abbr=on}} for the US FAR 103 Ultralight Vehicles category. This was followed by a heavier and more capable single-seat design for the homebuilt category, the American Sportscopter Ultrasport 331. There was also a two-seat trainer, the American Sportscopter Ultrasport 496. All models were named for their empty weight, in pounds.[1][2][3] Aircraft
