I only wish I could have found you Caption Ron ten years ago. I would have saved not only the Anguish of the CFI subcontractors but Thousands of DOLARS. Your videos are Professional, to the max. Thank You Sir!!

Nice to see the Gyro Technic part included. They have engineered an excellent product, in my opinion.

[@Echobike01]

Excellent 👍

[@angel_cee]

Just what I have been searchingfor❤

[@jamesschmidt5200]

Well done!

[@brandocommando36]

Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge sir🙏great video, hard to find enough Info on gyros .

My rotor head has bushings and I have to oil them every 5-10 hours or so as instructed by the fellow who build my (homemade) gyro. I just use a dab of oil from the engine dipstick like he showed me and I dont have to remove the hub bar I just remove the teeter nut and pop each bushing out most of the way to expose them for lubrication. Thanks for the video Ron all the best

[@scottcates]

Excellent presentation. Thank you.

[@chrishostetter7843]

Can all this be replaced if they would use an electric motor in a case near the rotors

[@mikew.inversegravitycraft]

Great video Ron,what type and grade are teeter bolts usually or range from

[@ronstowe8898]

Where does the AUTOGYRO pre rotation system get the air pressure from? Is there a pump on the engine?

[@SpeedDemonExpress]

Being that gyros do not have driven rotors wouldn't it be a lot safer to not have a pre-rotor or a brake? If anything goes wrong and jams up you'll lose rotor speed and die. The teeter bolt is a shockingly small diameter. Being that if any one of those bolts fail you are dead scares me. Also not a lot of material around the teeter bolt. BTW I work in aerospace manufacturing, and it still scares me how small the bolts are for that job.

[@garyyoung4074]

So why....(after asking everyone with no answer yet) are there no 3 blade shorter span rotors on gyro's that smooths out the retreating blade effects as well as reduced the rotor disk drag and stick shake? Aren't gyro's so slow due to the huge disk area of a floppy 27' rotors? Why not smaller diameter 3 blade?

[@SpeedDemonExpress]

A three blade rotor will not work because it will not teeter properly. It would need a variable pitch rotor head like a helicopter. At that point just fly a helicopter instead.
