New Gyro Copter at Hobby King

Post by Derek »

I want a gyro copter so bad. This one is 1300mm! WOW! Although this thing is gorgeous...it's a bit too pricey for me, lol

Very expensive for what it is, I recall one of Lees videos flying one. It looked very hard to fly. I'd rather spend that money on a decent quad... Guess it's different....lol

As soon as I saw this, I wanted it.
Then I saw the price, no thanks.

No, I was filming a guy at home in England. He had an 800 size gyro copter.
But he had no idea how to launch it, so it spun on the ground and trashed the blades on the maiden.
Another guy had the little HK gyrocopter. That was cool and only $60. I would get that one for sure, just for laughs.

I have to say, lol....I'm really liking the looks of this thing. Will I get one? No, not this one.....costs way to much. HK does sell another gyro copter....can't remember the name of it but it was considerably cheaper.
