Autogyros

Just thought I`d get the ball rolling with a slightly off-beat r/c model that is sometimes ignored. If you fancy a trip down nostalgia lane but the usual pre-war fixed wing types dont appeal then try a "whirling wonder". No high expense of the helicopter but hovering flight and STOL. There are plans and kits and a couple of (US-based) web sites. How about a `gryo only fly-in somewhere in the UK? Who has any of the Wallis by Micro Mold or Hobbit kits that were available? DB models still kit one of El Boddo`s Twin Rotor designs. (a great flier even on floats off water). Any Gyro-Nuts here? Duncan
