Sajab Aerospace Autogyro
ONLY WORKS ON HIGH PHYSICS!
This is an autogyro I made. The rotor is unpowered and the propeller is the only source of propulsion. To takeoff, increase power to 100% and pitch back to spin up the rotor. You will rotate at about 40-50 mph. Dont climb too fast after takeoff, let the aircraft speed up first. In order to roll you need to roll in the chosen direction and pitch back a little. If the aircraft starts glitching or control is lost, activate AG1 to gyroscopically reorient the aircraft. To land, reduce power to 0% and glide in a similar way to a fixed wing aircraft. The difference between this and a fixed wing aircraft is that the lift comes from spinning rotors. This means it is possible to land with 0 forward speed if you keep the rotor spinning fast enough.
