This is a very small and simple autogyro. Use the throttle to control the propeller, and VTOL to controll the rotor. To take off, push throttle to max, and accelerate to about 40mph, and then push VTOL to max. Make sure not to pitch up too much, otherwise you will stall. Stall speed is 50mph at full VTOL, cruise speed is 150mph, and max speed is 190mph. It will take off from land or water, and land on either. Be very careful with the controlls, as it is very sensible. Feel free to modify, and enjoy!
