The updates on the Carter Aviation Technologies site is showing latest progress on the four seater. They have obviously been hard at work and the demo model is coming on.
Obviously this particular size and complexity/affordability takes it out of the mainstream of people that seem to be on this Forum however if this particular concept does catch on, and I feel that it has a number of positives going for it, it will require some form of lead-in or trainer.
That is where the small 2 place pure autogyro and it's follow on the 2 place Slowed Rotor with wings may well emerge. While it is true that this would seem to be far enough in the future that most will not be interested hopefully if it does the fun community will have a new type of autogyro to play with.
