Default RE: My Shiney New Kirara Gyrocopter

Hi,

Yes, one of my first gyros and I would not recommend it. However, I would like to try it again now and see if I could fly one. It looks cool in the air but that large profile and high stance makes it very susceptable to tip-over. I suspect that the flapping head design from the PT 25 gyro would really help the 2-D. I'm not sure what Arizona autogyro is using for blades but the original design lacks performance as compared to the SG6042 design.
