This is an Autogyro, a kind of aircraft between helicopter and airplane.
To power the rotor by autorotation (unlike the helicopter’s use of active rotation).
The gyroplane also is different from the airplane. It depends on the rotors to produce lift. It has no
fixed wings, or only has assistant wings.
There are some suggestions on the gyrocopter flying.
1.
If you are a newcomer in RC. you should know many things about gyrocopter flying theory first.
And our suggestion is that you should learn how to fly the fixed-wing first.
2.
Gyrocopter rc is not stable as a fixed-wing rc, but more stable then a helicopter rc. The flying style
like the fixed-wing rc. But can't upside down flight. and never stall as the fixed-wing.
3.
The blades is auto-rotation throughout, so there is no negative torsion at the fuselage, not like
the helicopter must have tail rotor.
4.
It is necessary that there should be a pre-rotation system at Scale teeterboard rotor head
gyrocopter, or else you will take off difficultly. It is dangerous when take off with a no plenty RPM
at blades, Or the blades auto-rotation haven’t suit the airspeed, the whole fuselage will be shaken
even be uncontrol to roll left crash. So please pay more attenttion on the blades RPM anytime!
5.
Push gyrocopter have strong negative torsion as the pusher motor. so please don't push the
rocking bar too much when at the big throttle, otherwise the motor negative torsion will be
appeared immediately. It is very dangerous.
6.
C.G is very very important for gyrocopter. Too back C.G or too high C.G is bad for flying, And
calidus most be fitting battery is 4s 5000mah.
7.
The rotor head range shouldn't be set too much, about each 10 degrees is enough. Too much
back range will result in blades hit the ground or the empennage.
8.
Once the blades undergo a serious hit, please don't use the blades again, Or else it is very very
dangerous!!!
9.
please Take off and landing first at a low height, to check the push line and the CG. And then fly
higher.
10.
If you want to do a aerobatic flying, please practice more and more ,and then try do aerobatic
flying!
