My 70 year old brother just sent me this video. He always wanted a gyro-copter. So many advantages. Super cool !

I flew with Henry last month. He's a great teacher and pilot.

Love, love, love...great work team!!!

Thanks Terri!

I've been interested in gyros for 10 years now. I've always dreamed of flying and I'm finally ready to fulfill that dream now. I came close to buying a second hand one 3 years ago but I decided to save up for a new one that's fully loaded from day one. I'm finally ready to buy one without financing it. I've got experience with helicopters, not as a pilot, but lots of heliportable work. I've taken the stick as often as our pilots would let me. I can maintain a hover, I know that's not much, but it's something. I am going to invest in the best training I can find. Low and slow is the most appealing type of flying to me, although carving through the bush following a winding river seems alot quicker than the dials indicate. Flying makes me feel............I got no words for it. I'm leaning really hard towards this gyro in particular.

Great Video Thank you .Keeping my interest for sure.!

No prob! We had a fantastic time not just flying the airport pattern, but down the coast as well. Truly spectacular flying!

That big empty space on the instrument panel is begging for a Garmin display, but I'm guessing the purchase and installation costs would be off the wall since we're talking about avionics. I WANT ONE OF THESE!

I like the Cavalon. I don't often make it to the Fun Fly Zone at Oshkosh. But, when I do, I look for the Cavalon.

Love the video!

Second.....you both spoke about all these times, types, ratings you have yet you both also said something that I’m wondering but not yet experienced, that you love flying these. Would you be willing to elaborate? If do go down the gyro route, will I also have to get into a 12 step gyros anonymous group!?

No, the upper rotor provides more than enough lift to glide and land without the engine

Prerotating the Rotor to 300 RPM? (at 1:55 mins). I wanna try that.

The Cavalon felt and flew great. I wish I flew an aircraft with a massage chair! Not even the Falcon 7x I fly has one and that would be really nice on the super long hauls! This Cavalon was probably a little out of phase and could used to be restrung. (simple procedure). Properly rigged, the Cavalon is very smooth as far as any two-bladed tetering rotorcraft can be. Check our quarantine video, no perceived vibes through the audio there!

It’s out of phase is why it’s shaking like that. It probably needs to be restrung, and check the blade balance. Autogyros are going to shake a bit due to the varying lift prop rpm but this one is on the excessive side.

Lots of vibration there?..

@gyrorevolution5249

Two bladed rotor systems have inherent vibrations which with fine tuning can be reduced yet will never go away completely. Over time they do need to be re-tracked & balanced.

Diesel has struggled to make it to mainstream for aircraft. Diamond aircraft has successfully employed the AE300 engine. Interesting enough, they are produced in the same country as Rotax engines are, Austria. The diesel's are typically twice the weight per hp as the Rotax engines which makes them only suitable for platforms designed for larger lycoming/continental engines.

Looks and sounds very shaky though?

bro what even are these

Anyone else picking up a jitter in their voices like their is a bad vibration while flying this thing? I'd say that wouldn't make for a good ride for very long.

How fast will this Gyro go(Cruise) speed. MPH.

I'd feel more secure flying with a vehicle where my wings wear not in danger of flying off from centrifugal forces.

They appear to be unsafe

Yeah, probably, but only if it is better than ones that don’t hover, and only if lots of components are moved around and the design is changed for it to be possible.

if it can hover it's basically a helicopter, and there's no benefit over owning a full blown helicopter. There are gyros that can take off vertically by spinning up the rotor with the engine, but they usually transition to horizontal flight soon after
