Cool video ! I like how you used the fan to "spool" up the gyro blades prior to any forward motion, I'm not sure if this is standard protocol but from the gyro videos I've seen this is the first. I always thought it was forward groundspeed/airspeed that initiated the rotation and the propeller was used for forward momentum I have never flown a gyro so my terminologies are kind of green. How much clearance does the Fan/prop have in relation to the gyro blades when angled down towards the back ? Is there a chance of a rotor strike similar to a tail strike on a heli ? Again I'm new to the terminology, just trying to learn Thanks, Dan.
There is a flexible cable that attaches to a rubber composite wheel that contacts part of the output shaft assembly, the hand lever on the stick is how you engage it, At 200rpm or so you disengage the pre rotator and add full power. I have one of there exact Air Commands
