Greetings to all. It's taken a few years, a career move and a new marriage to create a stable enough situation for a gyro build project. I started one a few years ago that had to be discontinued for personal reasons, but am beginning anew with a Gyrobee build that I will post progress photos of here.
Today I put a down payment on a zero-time Rotax 503 from 'Rotax Rick' (Ron Davis) and the airframe will be CNC machined with equipment where I work. So it should come together fairly quickly. Blades, Head and Seat are SportCopter, and prop will probably be by Larry Prince (P-Tip). Keeping her stock per plans for the most part but tail feathers are my own design which I'll share on this thread.
Looking forward to participating here again. Have missed a lot of the folks here over the past few years.
