Default RE: Gyro in Airplane ??

I have been building and flying models for 58 years, the last 38 years they are RC. I know how to use the rudder. In the last year I have been trying out gyros on the rudder of tail draggers and found they work very well. Cross winds and short coupling of the the tail on a plane are not a challenge with a gyro. Gyros are as much cheating as those who takeoff cross run way so that they can takeoff into the wind or use dual rates and expo to tame their thumbs.
