It is pretty nice. We used to have our feild reserved for three days for our electric lub to fly. But the old men forgot to renew our application and we lost it for only one day a week (Thursdays). Hopefully we will oust the current presidency and slackers one day and get new blood in there....... those who can really handle the resposability of running a flying club. They are more worried about their Depends and when to take their Cumiden (blood thinner)!!!!! LOL!!! In the video you can see the old men sitting in chairs at the end of the feild. The younger guys go to middle of the field to REALLY fly. Too far for them to walk.

Hi Dave,

Nice to see an onboard video. Does this gyro only turn left? I have a friend that did fly gyros and he could only turn left. He tried to make a right turn and crashed and I don't think he has flown since.

LOL!!!! No phil....it turns right also. It was very overcast that day...not long befroe a rain storm. On overcst days....I get disoritinted badly. So...if I just stay in one direction....I am OK.

Aslo....we stay the pattern at our club.....

One thing I learned about my gyro: I had a tumble over once on landing and one of my underslung vert stab broke off. Having no glue...I kept flying with only one. At one point I was taxi-ing back in and a cross wind rolled it over. The reamining stab was damaged and I took itoff. I was a little nevous flying with out them.....but I must tell you that I flew awesome.

Without the vert stabs....I can SEE the horz. stab much better now and it helped with my disorientation. I may just leave them off for good.

Phil....here is a movie from the ground and air!!!!

Dave,

Do you have plans for your DAG-R2 autogyro please?

I saw you had some up on *bay, but I was not in time to bid.

If you do have plans and could let me know the costs I could PayPal the funds over.

I would be most grateful.

Cheers,

Mick.
