With all that being said, I LOVE the 3 axis gyro concept! We also need someone to continue testing them so they will advance & hopefully become bullet-proof one day, so THANK YOU gyro flyers, keep up the great work! They are very pleasing to watch.
actually there is.. with the demon, you just zero the gain, and its a pass thru.. if it ever failed..


I am a convert.. Im flying the demon cortex in all my toys.. You should see it turn off the wind in smaller stuff.. There are also a lot of jets flying them now..
