Proper placement and alignment of the rudder pedals is essential in creating an easy to use control device. Also, ensure that the pedals are bent to the correct angle as specified in the construction plans for your gyrocopter. The rudder pedals should be connected to the nose wheel. So check, and double check, the installation before attempting to send your gyrocopter into the air. Most gyrocopter accidents are caused by inproper placement and installation of the horizontal stabilizer. Also, you must install a horizontal stabilizer in order to create a dynamic stabilizer and add support during flight. Once the rotor causes the blades to spin, air forced downward from the 3 blades produces lift sufficient enough to force the gyrocopter off the ground and sustain flight.Īttach the rotor properly in the appropriate location on the gyrocopter (you can view your construction instructions for precise details). The blades that are connected to the hub and rotor enable the gyrocopter to fly. When attaching the rotor to the gyrocopter, take note of the 3 areas where the hub will be connected to the blades. When constructing a Gyrocopter, it is best to use rotors because these are safer to use and are compact in design. Step 2 – Construct the Rotors to the Gyrocopter This mount point is where the outlying fixed wheels will be mounted. Attach an axle to a tube and double check if the axle is correctly positioned.
