I just ordered my kit the other day... looking forward to it. I would like to use a brushless/3S lipo combo. My LHS carries AXI motors.. so how aggressive is the 2808 for this bird? I don't want it too overpowered, just a little to help climb out of a hairy-carry situation if necessary. I'm not terribly smart on how to pick out motors and props yet and I would venture to say that auto's have slightly different requirements compared to a fixed wing bird for similar weight. Also, what servos are ideal/work well with this model?

Jim, perhaps you could convince Frank to have some autogyro flight action in next year's Top Gun show. I was there this year (only on Friday) and didn't see any glimpse of auto's there. I think if they had some exposure at a major event like that there would be more interest and more kits available.
