Girocoptero LL-Bee

1,370 RodolfoTassinari  3.9 years ago

Simple homemade Autogyro (or Girocoptero/Gyrocoptero)

Ag 1: Pre-rotate first (5 seconds is enough)
Then full throttle and pitch back (slowly)
Normal controls like a plane

I used some pieces from Autogyro Tutubi of the user "Alienindustries", so I give him some credit.
