Well, here I go again.
I figured that if I took this here motor, them there tail and blades,that there rotor head and one of dem der props, I could build a gyro. I guess I'll have to build a frame. So now all I gotta do is figure out how to build one. ![]() ~~JAKE~~

A six-pack, a bag of weed, and a drill motor is all you need.
Oh yeah, a junkyard. Gotta have a junkyard. Or so I've heard...

Jake it seems you have almost all the main elements for another gyro....except.....I have been looking through the pictures and can not find the Flat Black paint on any of them! What's up with that?

Well, since 90% of all these parts have been accumulated over a period of time,I'm gonna call this thing The Accumulator. Rotor head and seat tank are Air Command. Stick is Brock. Rotor is Skywheels. Tail I got from Ernie last B-Days. 503 has a total rebuild, crank, pistons,rings and cylinders. I got that from Brook before the rebuild. Air shocks are from a Honda motorcycle. Here are some picks.

Great job Jake. I like the tall tail and the way you did the nose wheel, and the suspension is a great idea.
