Midget 1 , have you noticed if your gyro acts "tippy" on the ground at all ?
I am uninverting my AC also.
When AC started running the engines upright, the gearbox was run upwards, to keep engine as low as possible.
If gearbox is run downwards , it requires the engine to be lifted 5" higher.
This will obviously move the CG up alot & help make the machine closed to CLT.
But my question is , will having the engine weight that high up make the machine "tippy" during landing & ground handling ?
