"Simple G"

Jim Baxter`s   easy to build and fly D/C (Direct Control) gyro...

This model is an adaptation of the "Sparky" electric model.. You may click on the graphic on the right above to see a general view of what the plan looks like.    You can also see (and copy) the first 1/2 of the actual building instructions by clicking here...      This model will accommodate glow/IC engines ranging from .09 to .12 in size.





  Plans are available, and now includes the supplementary plan for a rudder .   and has options for different flex hinge rotor hubs, in addition to the rudder which improves the ability to accomplish ground takeoffs, touch and go`s, and additional in - light manueuvers. .









The Simple-G  is small, light (19 ounces),  and is direct servo controlled (no rudder or elevator).    Can be hand launched, or ground launched with new rudder option.   The one pictured here sports a Thunder Tigre .10 engine, turning an 7 x 4 prop.



 



With a 32" disk, it has a great 3.4 low disk loading.   The model can be easily adapted, during the building process, to be powered by most engines in the specified range.

This is an easy to build and fly model (note the simplicity of the fuselage profile construction shown above) and -does not- require machining of any parts.
