Bush Gyro

Auto Credit Based on Jundroo's Bush Plane

Overview: the Bush Gyro is a modified version of Jundroo's Bush Plane. As the name suggests, it is an autogyro designed to perform the same tasks as a bush plane. Aside from the general autogyro modification, the aircraft's instrument panel has been slightly modified to accommodate the aircraft's modifications.

Controls: Activate1: Rotor Booster (Use the rotor booster until rotor RPM reaches 200.). Activate2: Doors. Trim: Trim.

Notes: aircraft vibrations are normal, and can be stopped by giving the aircraft small roll inputs. If the rotor booster is on and the airspeed is greater than 5mph (~2.4 m/s), a red warning light will activate. I recommend using lower throttle while cruising to avoid potential rotor overspeed (25%-75%).
