The Wallis actually flies. I had a 10 to 15 mph wind almost down the runway and I made two failed attempts and both times it got up about 5 feet and it would just sort of hover and I couldn't get the nose down. I just didn't seem to have enough power to penetrate the wind. A 60 size 2 stoke is recommended but I'm using a 52 4 stroke. I made a few adjustments and added more weight to the noise and the third try up it went. I have flown a lot of gyros but none like this one. Orientation was a serious problem. I made two successful flights and it's the most awsome gyro that I have ever flown. It actually flies more like a helicopter. Very fast forward speed and the fuselage pretty much stays horizontal as opposed to most gyros that fly nose high. Landing was easy. It would hover right down to the ground just like a heli and the wind certainly help. The pictures are after the flight and I will try and get some video if I can get it into the air again.
