Hi,
Yes, Hal deBolt did fly his autogyro with the co-pilot. This is the one from FMA Direct. I have done extensive testing in single rotor, dual rotor and fixed wing. It performs well in most cases and the most impressive is in a helicopter. It will stabilize any fixed wing airplane. It does not perform real well in a dual rotor autogyro. If the gain is set high enough to stablize the gyro it likes to wag the tail. It works well with a single rotor gyro. Connect the roll and elevator servo to the autopilot. I even tried connecting the throttle servo in place of the elevator. :stupid: That was interesting. It's best connected to a computer radio with with a spare channel that has a variable output. This allows adjusting the gain or turning it off in flight if you're not getting the correct results.

I did a night-fly with an autogyro and had several good flights before crashing.

I'll try using the auto-pilot as it's suppose to work at night.
