Sean, I spoke with Rick Anderson. I think I found my problem. I have been hand launching the model with full trottle. He said that this might explain why the model wants to climb straight up when launched. He lives within one hour from me.

Both of my Autogyros are are beyond repair. I have started a new .15 size DC. Once I finish it, I plan to take it to Rick's house and let him take it up.

Sean, can you email me some good close up pictures of your "Whirling Dervish" and Kellerva Gyro? Thanks
