Question Is a CH7 a "PPL Helicopter" ?

Technically a helicopter, definitely not a Gyrocopter :
CH-7 Heli-Sport

- two seats
- payload "170/220 kg"
- VNE 110kts
- Manufacturer sits in Torino, Italy (hence EASA world)

What is this, legally speaking?
May I fly it with a PPLH only?
Do I need a rating?
Or is that some kind of "Ultralight Heli" ? (does such aircraft type exists in EASA world)?

sidenote: how does one train in and acquire a rating for a single seat heli, like for instance the K-MAX? (FI instructs over the radio only?)

TIA
Peter
