This... is why I don't do gyrocopters.
---Controls---
[Throttle] Jet engine
[VTOL] Propeller
---How to---
[Takeoff] VTOL 3/4 up, Throttle all the way, wait to be over 150 mph, then VTOL all the way up
[Landing] VTOL a tad bit down, Throttle at 50%, cut Throttle when above the runway, then cut VTOL
---Hope you enjoy!---

    @Flightsonic naw, it's hard to make something like that small. I can't make complicated builds to save my life XD

    @Johndfg No it's not your iPhone, it's just the entire failure of a good takeoff method on my end XD, but I'm glad you enjoy

    @Flightsonic no problem! For my iPhone take off was a little funky, but I love it!

    @General360 Despite being cute... it was an absolute pain to build, and thanks!
