A rotor kite or gyrokite is an unpowered, rotary-wing aircraft. Like an autogyro or helicopter, it relies on lift created by one or more sets of rotors in order to fly. Unlike a helicopter, gyrokites and rotor kites do not have an engine powering their rotors, but while an autogyro has an engine providing forward thrust that keeps the rotor turning, a rotor kite has no engine at all, and relies on either being carried aloft and dropped from another aircraft, or by being towed into the air behind a car or boat or by use of ambient winds for the kiting. As of 2009, no country in the world requires a license to pilot such a craft.

- Wiroszybowiec – beznapędowy wiatrakowiec, paraszybowiec. Wiroszybowiec wznosi się w powietrze dzięki sile nośnej wytworzonej przez jego wirnik nośny, który jest wprawiony w ruch podczas ruchu postępowego wiroszybowca holowanego za innym pojazdem, statkiem powietrznym lub wyciągarką. Po odłączeniu od zewnętrznego czynnika ruchu wiroszybowiec może lecieć dalej, wykorzystując zjawisko autorotacji. (pl)
