Description

I replaced my trikes (weight-shift control aircraft) with a gyroplane in 2020. I have flown trikes over 1400 hours between 2008 and 2019. I think trike was a good platform for my videography work, but gyroplane has two major advantages over trikes, maneuverability and stability in turbulence. More than dozen of my trike friends converted to gyros in the past few years. All of them have been very satisfied with their gyros since.
