Default autogyro research

Hello community!

I am in need of some info on autos. I can't find a good source for kits or even info on RC autos (I fly helis). I am doing research at the U of Minn and am in need of a heavy lift experiment platform. We are currently waiting for our Bergen Industrial Twin to arrive and the professor wants to do some preliminary experimenting with autos. Are there any non-scale large kits available? The Industrial Twin has a huge payload of 20lb; I'm not expecting anything that big just for preliminary tinkering. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Jake
