[nikhil138]

hi everone
first i wanted to built a gyrocopter but due to the shipping problems and other reasons i could not go for it but one of the member gave an advice to go for gyroglider and i found the blueprints and some notes how to start building from the past few days i was understanding the plans i firstly used solid works software and had drawn everything in isometric projection now i came to know what all parts i need

so please help me with your advices reguarding the material selection and also i am also thinking of flying it my self (i have no experience in flying )
i am going strictly through plans and i am keeping the operating joystick vertically up as in plans i am using hs

also please give valuable suggestions reguarding airframe construction and i cannot find the thickness of the material in the plans

i am planning to purchase hollow square tubes of aluminium t6061 on end of this month

thank u please help me with your advices

Download the Bensen manuals if you haven’t already, and follow them faithfully.
