On April, 14, I have a chance to fly this gyro accompanied by it's designer, Victor Shumeiko and Dmitry Rakitskiy as a test pilot.
Vic is lucky in flight: his dream works, and it works fine!
To be true, I was not optimistic about this gyro when seeing it's first
appearance. It looked too complex to be a sport gyro. Fortunately, I feel very
comfortable in it from the take-off through landing.
After we finished this flying session, the Hunter left to it's home base
carrying 130-kg passenger in the right back seat. There are no CG problems with
this!
