The GT Gyroplanes, boys have already started on Kruza number 3.Keel, mast, engine mount, front and rear undercarrige already fitted and sitting on them. Also new larger fuel tank 140 Lt is also nearly finished, including the newly designed twin tail.Seems the boys have gotten the hang of building gyro"s now!!!

Here are the photos of the hang and balance tests. 1) First is at MAUW 600kg"s (105lts fuel and 180-200kg of cement on the front seats) Machine hung at 10 degree"s.2) Second is at Min AUW at about 460kg"s (15 lts fuel and 80kg pilot) Machine hung at 7 degree"s.I must say, it was good to see minimal change to hang angle & centre of mass, regardless of reduced weight.GTG Kruza 2 is a slightly high thrustline. In England +/- 2 inches is considered CLT (Centre Line Thrust)Great out come.Just awaiting final flight testing, then 2 seat compliancey.Regards SamL................
