I am moving up from PPGs (getting older), and am looking into flying gyro's. Unlike my PPG experience, gyro's are pricey (relatively), and after I finish some hours training I will need am aircraft of my own to finish the solo hours. While the Euro style aircraft are sleek and well manufactured, they are also very pricey, and 60K for a used one is a lot to ask when someone is just moving into a new sport. I have seen some dominators in the 20K (even less) range, and that seems doable price point wise, but are they newbie friendly?
So if you were a newbie and had an economical budget, what gyro would you choose? Something that handles easily and can be maintained without too much effort would be preferable. Thanks for input on this.
