symetrical blades

i have a plan of a autogyro(kestral) that i would like to build, and i was wondering if i could use a pair of symetrical heli blades, it's a fixed pitch head autogyro, from a free plan issued some time ago, if i could use them what set up would i need to use, i.e pitch angle , direction of rotation etc.

No-can-do Paul, Heli blades would be great if only they were flat-bottomed,strong,nice finish, readily available in various sizes but check-out the technical pages on www.autogyro.com and all will be explained. Rotor direction,blade incidence, cone-ing angle(dihederal), flying tips etc.from leading experts . What is the plan you are using ? Single or twin rotor ?
