I just checked and you are an hour and a half from our club in Lansing, IL.
Our meeting is at the Lansing muni arpt, 11am (CST)
Bring the gyro and we'll get it running for you.
I am a former Air Command dealer and glad to help. (and I can probably get you a ride in an MTO Sport)

Call me Tommy Milton, 708-895-0398
