Scale up of gyro
 

So what happens when you scale up a gyro? Is it a total redesign or are some aspects conserved? I was thinking a 2X BEGI or G3PO would be attractive. Possible or not????

Possible and likely.

Hummmmm... I suppose I should start saving some money.

On a related note, which is easier to fly for a fairly new gyro flyer, the BEGI, G3PO or neither?

Gt17 is the easiest of my three to fly by far.
I've taught pilots to fly it with no rotor experience.
No single rotor will ever be as easy to fly
as a dual rotor, so that's a given.
Most people can fly the dual rotors.
Most experienced pilots that can use
the rudder can fly my stuff.
If you've ever flown a helicopter, even
hovering you can fly my stuff pretty easily.
Your mileage may vary.

Yes, I've been mentally designing a big tricycle gear jump takeoff BEGi.
Gotta have something new for springtime you know.

do you sell kits?
I would like a autogryo of a large size say 120" rotor is this possible.
