RE: New Gyro
Hello Colin,
Looks like you are on your way to building your Gyrace II. Here are a few things that may help you in your efforts. The lateral tilt has a .032" P/P hinge and a HS 645MG servo. The rotor blades are constructed from
1/4 X 3/4 spruce on the leading edge with a 1/4 X 1 1/4 Balsa trailing edge bonded to it. The root end is reinforced with 1/32 Plywood for 2" top and bottom. The rotor rotates on a Master Airscrew Reduction gearbox meant for electric airplanes, available from Tower Hobbies. I've posted four photos that may give you better insight into how my changes to the Gyrace appear up close. Good luck!
