TAKEOFF PROCEDURE:
Make sure you are taking off into the wind, i reccomend 5 or 10 mph winds,
VTOL down
Throttle 100%
Press 1 & 2
After you are in the air you can hover by flying into a poweful wind, it cruises well, but has the grace and agility of a one legged badger on LSD.
To land, err, hope for the best and power down slowly untill you hit the ground, ideal curcumstances would be a 5-20mph wind blowing towards you, if you do it correctly prehaps the landing gear will survive the impact. technically you can get it to vertically take off and land, alas this requires skill that i do not have.
Anyway, back when I was a tier 1 scrub-lord I made the self proclaimed 'first working auto-gyro' I found the drawings I made and re made it with new parts, it flies pretty much the same, and the only thing I changes from the drawing was the jet engine, the jet engine is to help it have a constant lift and is very useful hen it comes to mobility. anyway enough rambling, hope you,
ENJOY!
No badgers were harmed in the making of this aircraft.

No, but I can make new stuff as well no :) ? I've got 4 'old' builds in the workshop ATM but they take a pretty long time to make because there usually aren't many photos or plans for the things I like making, and the photos that do exist are usually in poor condition so I like to get sidetracked and restore them in Photoshop.... so yeah, and also when I do make something old its not actually guaranteed to fly so I end up spending sometimes more time than I spent building them trying to get the blasted contraptions to get 5ft altitude records. Not a rant ;) @JetWondy
Hey, this isn't old!!
