Simple G.

This is Les's latest autogyro, the Simple G. It has 24 flights to date and is amply powered by a Thunder Tiger 15. After a lack of success with earlier autogyros, he got hold of a plan for this one. He has been much more successful with this one as it flies much better than the others.

He is getting much more confident with it every flight and is currently builing a scaled up version of it. We wait to see it in anticipation.

One thing with this particular autogyro is that because of its size it is very difficult to take off from the ground. It therefore has to hand-launched. It can be a bit un-nerving launching an aircraft with a rotating disc on top as I have found out. But the running keeps me fit, so I don't mind.
