This kit was accompanied with 27' rotor but it seems it should fly much better with 28'. I have this rotor too so we'll check it soon.
This time I'm working on the engine and prop as well as on the prerotator to get more power and more RRPM on prerotation.
The empty weight of the craft is 264 kg though I hope to win some 10 kg replacing seats and building new lightweight airframe.
And I plan to rebuild the cockpit: first time sitting in this gyro I was surprised that there is no chance to view the instruments from the back seat which is a real pain since most of flights we do here we do having a passenger (or student) in the front seat.
One more thing we changed was the prerotator handle: it was made for installing onto the throttle stick, but I'm sure it's not good since your left hand is too busy during prerotation making small movements with throttle while the right hand isn't loaded much.
I've also moved all the fuses and switches from the instrument panel, placing them near the front throttle handle (like it was done on the Thumpernator). This way you may reach them easily from both seats.
Latest: we've installed 100hp Rotax912ULS to the same airframe. It's a thrill!!!
