Default connecting a gyro

now i know what i gyro does, what my question is, is what i can do with it. I am looking into buying a Fun Piccolo, but my problem is that i dont want to pay another 80 bucks for the piccoboard which it needs. I figure if the heli needs it, then why doesnt it come with it? So then i thought, i could just buy a micro gyro and an esc and do that. but then i realized the t/r of the Piccolo is controlled by a motor, rather than collective pitch blades. I want to know if its possible to hook up a gyro to that rotor through the esc or something like that. i just want a configuration where i wont have to spend the money on a Piccoboard. thanks
