Simple homemade Autogyro (or Girocoptero/Gyrocoptero)
Ag 1: Pre-rotate first (5 seconds is enough)
Then full throttle and pitch back (slowly)
Normal controls like a plane
I used some pieces from Autogyro Tutubi of the user "Alienindustries", so I give him some credit.

@TTHHSSSS Yes, and if you had some front wind, you need even less pre rotate.
With a long enough runway you don’t even need to prerotate
