Gyros or autopiolots?

For what?

for a 33% h9 cap232

Practice, Practice and lots of fuel... that's better.

I hate to say it, but if you are inquiring about auto-pilots and gyros, you really shouldnt be looking at that large/expensive/aerobatic plane. I would look at something a LOT cheaper all the way around, (small pattern/ sport/ small scale aerobatic plane), with a smaller engine (less cost), smaller servos (cheaper), and burn gallon upon gallon of fuel honing your skills. From your posts in other threads, you will not be getting this plane for a while, so why not go smaller and cheaper, and have experience alot sooner.

I am only saying this because I would hate to see you put 2500 in a plane only to have it lost due to reliance upon gyros and auto-pilots. Again, I am not saying this to be mean.

I highly agree with Stevezero.

Don't even consider getting a large scale plane until you have mastered the trainer with the help of an instructor. And then you may not even be ready for a large aerobat.

Anyway, to answer your question.

Gyro: Waste of money on anything but a heli.
Autopilot: All it does is return the plane to a neutral attitude. Again worthless because if you were to completely lose your radio signal the plane would go for several mile before it crashed and you will probably not be able to find it.

ok
i was only asking that cuz my dad was wonderin if they would be of any help.
thanx

i already got the plane, but wont be flying it for a few years. i plan to get better. the plane im going to start really learning most flight on hopefully is the 4 star 40 that i got from my instructor.
i ask questions bout the big stuff, so i will be knowledgeable when the time comes.

Good Luck with the 4star. It's great that youre asking alot of questions now. Better to ask them now than after its too late. Just keep burning the fuel, as often as possible and you'll be ready for the big bird in no time.
