Default Autogyro Conversion Advice

I have a AofA gyrobee and a Simple G built from Jim Baxters plans now i would like to covert a Modeltek Magic that was given to be by a friend. It was crashed when i got it. I have re-assembled all of the important parts. The wing is also salvageable but a rotor would be much more fun....
As you can see it has large landing gear on it already. All i need to do is build a rotor mast and figure out the diameter of the rotor. I want left / right tilt and i will use the elevator for up and down.
Heres what i have so far....
What you see with a Magnum 36 engine 3 servos receiver and battery weights 3 1/4 pounds. Fuse length is 33".


Any suggestions?
