With due respect I do not believe that a rotor kit should be built by any gyro builder.We have enough problems wiht faulty gyros resaulting in deaths.On this occasion the rotor is critical and does not allow for any mistakes.

Some information about testing of these blades as well as about seller/designer experience in gyros definitely would be appreciated.
