I just got back from a road trip to pick up my gyro. It's a KB-2 with a 72 Mac-o-matic (without the optional heating trays), Wunderlich prerotator, rotor brake, Dragon Wing blades, air speed indicator, and a rotor tach. It needs a little TLC but it'll be good for me to start with. Before I fly I'm adding a HS stab and Hagar wheels with disc brakes on the mains. I'm going to use a hydraulic line-loc for a parking brake since I'll be prop starting it. Later on I plan on upgrading the tail to the newer type and I'd like to add mufflers. I plan on going over every inch (and bolt) and doing a hang test before I fly. I'll have plenty of time to do that while I'm saving for my lessons. I hope to get my lessons and be in the air some time this summer.
