Amazing as usual! What's cool is that at some point the rotors aren't even rotating!

Great flight Joe, looks like you stalled it on the first landing, the second landing you weren't taking any chances haha .. looks like it needs a bit more speed on landing with no wind

Very nice model Joe kinda reminds me of a Precedent / Slec Fun FLy wood kit from years ago but different cockpit arrangement looks like a good model to move on from a basic trainer model. You are much hardier than me out in the rain!!!!

Where this event took place? Is it planned to repeat this in the future? It would be great to take part next time.

Hi Jan it was in Italy a few years ago and they haven't organized one since. The best Autogyro event is at Wintetons annual event in the UK Joe

Very good looking and excellent flying RC gyroplane. Just look very much like the full size model that are commercially sold nowadays. The tail dragger model I think it’s too top heavy, if the landing gear were made shorter maybe it can help stabilize take off roll. But it looks classic. Thank you for posting, enjoy RC flying. Cheers from Jakarta.

@Jockadopolus11 ай бұрын
Tony she flies great even in the wind, has a bit of adverse yaw and needs some rudder to keep the tail up in the turn. Some differential on the ailerons will cure that. Joe

Great video Joe .. love the slow passes and slow landings with Draco XL .. Nico is very quick and so aerobatic, strange how different it flies from Elira .. which is only a different wing in a different position eh
@Jockadopolus11 ай бұрын
Yes the XL Draco is a pussy cat very stable and fun to fly slow and play with the flaps.😁 Nico is a fun aerobatic plane able to fly slow or fast, the roll rate is not fast and I think it needs differential on the ailerons. Joe

great maiden of your new build in Corfu Joe, thanks for showing the slow and close flying .. I love the way it just hops of the ground when you open the throttle and it doesn't seem to have any horrible stall characteristics at very slow speed .. well done "AGAIN" mate ..
