I get so lost in these videos, they make me feel like I am a third person along for the ride, picking up valuable information, with the added bonus of getting to see the fantastic views.
It was because of their great videos that I wanted to come over and spend some time with them. As you can see from this video, Pete patiently explained things well to me in a way that made sense.
Peter, excellent video and editing. Great explanation of the "disc" concept. I assume the idea is to keep the air coming UP through the blades (disc). But what happens IF you push too far forward and the air comes through the top of the "disc" as you are moving forward. Is there a fine line between pushing forward when you are flying? Thanks, very clear instruction.
@john9663 It's not about if you push too far forward on the stick, it's about how fast you do it. Unloading the rotor by pushing the nose forward rapidly after a steep climb will cause a bunt over. If you try to push the stick forward slowly, the vertical stabilizer will work against you to keep you from doing a power pushover.
Very enjoyable video. (The title was bugging me though, cyclic seems to me to be a misnomer since rotor blade pitch variability is not available on gyro's other than rare exceptions).
We'd really appreciate your support by liking our videos and subscribing to our channel!
Thanks for LARGE Closed Captions. Please do ALL videos.
So well explained thanks to the questions of the student, and the simple logic of the instructor. Nicely done, gentlemen 👌.

@@TheCoastalEddie Yep, I get it! I am having the same thoughts and would do the same, but this is as far as my current budget allows😜
I've been watching these instructors demo clips for a few years nowaday
Thanks for watching!

What Gyrocop model are you flying in this vid ?
AutoGyro Cavalon
