AutoGyro.

This is one of the most unuasual aircraft seen for a while at the chouet flying site. The "gyro" as it is becoming known as, was built by Les. This is the second incarnation as the first one broke when the contra-rotating blades hit each other in flight. This one crashed too when somebody (sorry Pat) suggested trying a turn to the left. It didn't like that too much. Les has now ditched this contra-rotation of the blades in favour of one 3-bladed head instead. It has since hopped into the air a few times but has not flown for more than a couple of seconds at a time. We all wish Les much luck with it in the future.
