gyrocopter,and for the engine ? I am new to this sport(my dream came true) ,I just got my first class last Saturday ;D I really don't know much about the sport any advice?

Joe, I to fly the bensen with the 90 Mac. I have lots of spare parts for the Mac engine. I also have developed a true C.D.I. for the Mac. Feel free to contact me at 937-878-2598 for any needs for your engine.

[joeheli]

Sorry to ask you, what is C.D.I? ???

[joeheli]

and what improment does to the engine? ;D

[GyroRon]

Fill in your profile and sign your name somewhere please

cdi is a better type of ignition, it makes the engine more reliable and easier to start

[joeheli]

I already did fill my profile!!! :D, how much will you sell the
C.D.I system? I don't know much about the sport, or the engine ,or the gyrocopter, the only thing I know about heli is rc helicopters!! I am planning to make it new again (screws,engine,fuselage,etc). I just saw it fly and it fly great !!! ;D, > another question , What do you think about the Engine,is a good one? Do you know any website were I can get parts,of it? ???

Joe they require your real name somewhere on your profile.

I have heard good things about Ricks C.D.I. for the Mac.

[joeheli]

My real name is Jose Ortega

[joeheli]

What have you heard about it? ???

[bogman]

If you go search the old conference, you will find a good discussion about it.

In a nutshell, it proves to be well worth its price in easier starts and fewer engine outs.
