Experimental RV-4
About this aircraft
$74,500 · FOR SALE · Nice flying, lightweight, quick RV-4. 170 knot cruise on 9.5 gph. It was just gone through spinner to tailwheel and made into a reliable flying machine after sitting for a few years. No corrosion and clean oil analysis. Some updates include an engine monitor, ADS-B out, electric flaps, and many control system parts refurbished. Get it and fly it to Oshkosh!

This summary draws on signals shown in detail below — price comps, listing age, maintenance and engine status, and key specs. Read each section for full context. Not an appraisal.
Cost to own
Rule-of-thumb estimates — insurance ≈ 1% of price, hangar $7,500/yr, annual inspection $2,500/yr, fuel + oil at your selected hrs/yr. Your actual costs will vary.
As a sole owner
≈ $227 per flight hour at 100 hrs/yr — flying fewer hours raises this (fixed costs spread over fewer hours)
$74,500 to buy (the asking price)
At 100 hrs/yr, renting at $150/hr would be $7,745 cheaper annually — fly more to see ownership savings.
| Ownership | Buy-in | Monthly | Annual |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full ownership (sole) | $74,500 | $1,895/mo | $22,745/yr |
| 1/2 share | $37,250 | $1,448/mo | $17,373/yr |
| 1/3 share | $24,833 | $1,299/mo | $15,582/yr |
| 1/4 share | $18,625 | $1,224/mo | $14,686/yr |
Buy-in is the asking price split evenly across partners — what you'd each pay to acquire the aircraft (the real figure is negotiated). Fixed costs (insurance, hangar, inspection) split equally by number of partners; fuel/oil is per-pilot since each partner flies their own hours.
