I worked for Groen Brothers Aviation (GBA) from 1994 to 2008. I purchased nearly every component on the Hawk 4 prototypes and witnessed many of the flight tests where the vertical takeoffs and landings were performed. GBA was on the cusp of certifying the aircraft when the attacks on 9/11/2001 occurred. That event kicked the barrel out from under the company. GBA clawed their way back for another 7 years and it looked like they might finally get into production when the recession of 2008 dealt a death blow to the company. It never recovered after that.
A wonderfully composed and edited presentation depicting the past, present and future innovations of these splendid machines.
This certainly helps gyro owners and enthusiasts to keep abreast of future developments. Well done Arthur !!!
Thanks, Arthur, for the insight into current development of vertical take-off Gyros . While the Carter is well known, the larger and newer aircraft are mind blowing! It was nice to watch a selection of different machines in a combined video collage. Very well presented
Amazing take offs, some very graceful others like insects!
Awsome short Documentry on The Past, The present and the Furture!
This video has saved me hours of research Thanks for creating & sharing it .
excellent comparison of the past present and future vertical take of the gyro copters
I love the white ARYAn race with clear eyes
Great video thanks for sharing!!
lovely montages of Gyros. never knew they were so advanced! wow
Another great compilation! So many cool and diverse machines, fascinating to see how each one handles differently! Awesome!
This is helpful for short trips across big estates for example if you own a mountain, a hill, or vast stretches of land.
excellent video. man, i had no idea those things could fly like that. excellent!
Excellent compilation of past, present and future
Looking forward to the future!
Awesome! 👍
Future is looking really bright and exciting... very well researched
very interesting timeline, thank you
The Fairey and later Avro Rotodynes were only gyroplanes in cruise.
Their main rotor was powered in other flight modes.
By tip jets
What a fantastic educational video most people dont know
What an interesting video, I had no idea a vertical take off like that was possible
Gyro may use a little more landing area than helicopters but they a lot more stable than a fixed wing aircraft for landing in cross and high wind take offs and especially cross wind landings . In fact in many instances , heading into high winds gives them an advantage since they gain more energy in the rotors why using less horsepower creating many of the extremely short take offs and landings while being faster and cheaper to operate than helicopters .
fairly appealing!
always loved the auto gyros
When I was a boy scout I draw a that first one. Boy men years ago now. I am 66 now and it's nice to see it again and the new ideas.
Rotadyne and the last plane have a good useable for short distance passanger flights. 200-600 km.
Very interesting Arthur. First time seeing this type of technology. It's amazing what innovation happens out there.
Design comes a full circle (no pun intended :) ) back to a pure jet powered Rotodyne configuration.
Incredible video , very informative and a great future to look forward to. Well done !
:( i want one
fantastic video clips
Interesting clips totally ruined by the dubbed music... :(
groen also converted a cessna pusher puller airframe into a tractor [ puller ] configuration.. many think the original puller / tractor style is safer ..less chance of tumbling forward under certain flight conditions
the original cierva ; kay ; kayaba ; kellet ; pitcairn etc autogyros were all tractor variants of conventional airplanes
Very promising the future of aviation.
Do these slow rotor autos ,like Arrowhawk, suffer in wind? The high speed rotors on autos supposedly provide stability against winds?
If I had the money I would revive the Fairey Rotodyne myself. Such a great concept for short haul passenger travel.

cool stuff, was es alles gibt...
I happen to love the cheesy music background!
i like them buy 1000 of them, give to folks on the sealed inditement lists!
the air and space 18A was an american jump take off gyro company owned by don farrington
Cool
These are such beautiful and under rated machines. I heard they would have replaced cars if it wasn't for a crash. Can you imagine flying these instead of driving?
We'd be flying them today if it weren't for government collusion with the aircraft industry.
Gyrocopters have been advertised as a cheap alternative to the helicopter since the 1960's but never manage to make any significant inroads into the commercial market. It's been 80 years now, maybe time to call it a day.
Thanks for sharing How much does the gyrocopter I want to contact them based
Good I dear...
After WWI the mail delivery was deciding to go with Gyros or bi-planes, I think the only reason the planes won it is because there were several pilots ready to go as well as planes. The auto gyro would have had many benefits over the plane. There was an old video I saw where the gyro was lust lowering a mail bag on a rope while they man on the ground ran beside it and unhooked the bag. The auto gyro would have meant more reliable delivery though with weather.
Hmm.. actually Autogyros aren't good at hovering.. helicopters can because the rotors are powered.. but a Gyro needs a constant airflow to stay aloft.. it can be done if the wind is strong enough.. maybe over 30 Knots or so.. but thats not good weather to be lowering a mailbag..
Da waren einige gute Modelle !
Nice
3:20 COMO SE CHAMA E QUAL A FABRICANTE OU MODELOS DESSA AERONAVE?
music reminds me of the opening credits for Monty Python's Holy Grail
How does a rotor with no direct engine power main totation for hovering to landing or for vertical takeoff?
Hi Ron, On ground the rotor is pre rotatet with the engine to a higher RPM than in flight. The rotor pitch is negative, so the gyro wont take off. Also tip weight is added. With all that stored energy positive pitch is added. The engine is now disconnected from the rotor system and the gyro jumps up from the ground, during that time forward speed is added and the gyro flies in normal autorotation.
For landing the stored energy is used to hover for a few seconds.
The gyro cannot sustain hover without strong head wind.
I hope that helps
Why don't we see these VTOL capable gyros in production today for personal use? They would be at the top of my list for an aircraft purchase.
Zero stall speed is not really correct. When the rotor does not spin fast enough, a gyro will drop..and that very very fast. And in order for a rotor to spin, airspeed is needed. If the pitch is too high and the energy is washed off, a gyro will drop out of the sky. Same like a stall. Difference is, the stall on a conventional wing is based on angle of attack, not on airspeed. A gyro on the other hand it is a bout the energy that is needed to spin the rotor, thus to produce lift.
Yes, you can stall a rotor, but the recovery is simply down collective.
You do NOT need forward speed for the rotor to produce lift; that's why it rotates. To autorotate, you only need air passing through the rotor disk with proper application of collective.
On the ground, air produced by the thrust engine keeps the rotor spinning without forward motion. That's how they can do those jump starts.
@Rusty Climber Remind me please...what was the topic about?
@Rusty Climber Ok, just found my comment. Well, I am sure that I will NOT deal with anyone to convince them of anything. I do not have another 120 years to live...it might take that long to make the FAA understand ))
@@KutWrite Actually generally you can't stall it other than unloading (negative g) as the rotor unlike a helicopter is always in autorotation as the angle of incidence of the blade is generally below 4 degrees. Some of the jump take off gyros in the 1930's allowed for a short excusion to 6 degrees or more but flew at an angle that would not allow it to stall. This is why you don't really need a rotor tacho in a normal (non-jump gyro - if you know how to wind up rotors) you would definitely need one in any sort of jump take off gyro as you need to know you have enough energy stored to succeed in he jump.
intresting what gyrocopter can do in the future
Man now i want one of those :'(
Обалдеть! Я и не знал , что автожиры на это способны.
tenho curiosidade de conheser e posuir um desses
Why not add some electric "drone" propellers to make the vertical lift and then to go smoothly on with normal way?
These are beautiful modern aircraft's. I see, and understand the rotor technology, but those rotors look like they are driven by the engine, via, a clutch setup to spin the rotor rpms (315-450) to take off vertically. I understand the stored energy in the rotor rpms, but it would have to be under relative sustained power to hover.
Yes you are right they only can hover if the rotor is driven like the Rotodyne's jet driven rotor with compressed air during take-off and landing
They are taking off using pre-rotation to be able to "jump start". once flying a "hover" into a reasonably light breeze is easy to accomplish. I could fly my air commander at as low as about 8 knots, which is only a light wind.
If you had 180° pitch, you could lock the rotors creating fixed wings for high speed flight
What 's the winds for?
Thank you for watching my video
The rotor is driven by airflow only so you can call it wind driven
These are beautiful....do the gyros in the beginning of the video have powered rotors or are they true Gyros? The take offs are amazing...thanks for sharing
The big Gyro rotor is powered with compressed air thru the rotor tips during take-off . The others are fast pre rotated and use the stored energy to take off. All are true gyrocopters and fly only with non powered rotors.
Thanks for sharing....these would be so much better than choppers....and so much more practical to get around in

They can't replace ordinary helicopters for all uses. Since the main rotor is unpowered in flight, gyrocopters can't hover for very long.
Se les pasó por alto un pequeño detalle......El origen del autogiro se remonta al año 1923, fecha de su primer vuelo en España y pilotado por su creador e inventor Juan de la Cierva, ingeniero español. Este año es su 100 aniversario.
En la actualidad, el fabricante español ELA, siguen en el presente y a la vanguardia hacia el futuro.
Buenos vuelos....
I want to know how it counters the main rotor torque during the vertical take-off and landing.
Thanks for watching.
On those Gyros there is no torque on the rotor. The rotor on the big Gyro is driven by compressed air coming out of the rotor tips.
By all other smaller gyros the rotor is only driven for a very short time with the momentum from high RPM pre rotating.
@@ArthurGemperle Thank you for the explanation. It seems that I didn't watch the video carefully.
No Air and Space 18?
I don’t see an area for a very sizable fuel tank, thus limiting range
It is very good but the thrust motor can be replaced by a turbine and the rotating blades remain in neutral when turning. They can also be folded back because you cannot fly at a speed below 600km.h
Hawk 4 is the best design
Arthur Gemperle: You left out a lot of interesting information. Other than that. A good overview of VTO Gyrocopters.
thailand good
I learned something new. I always thought the gyro didn't have a power rotor. I thought it used a push engine to go forward motion to create lift on rotor. Wouldn't this be closer to push engine helicopter?
Hi Jay , you are correct , the gyrocopter has no engine powered rotor in flight. It is driven only by airflow. However on ground the rotor is prerotated by the engine . The vertical take off gyro can use the stored energy in the rotor system to take off vertical by changing the pitch on the rotor blades . I hope I could help !
Well, it's pre-rotated by air flow produced by the thrust propeller. The engine is not connected to a gyroplane's rotor.
On regular gyro, you would use the engine power to get the main rotor spinning than disconnect. Than you would speed up with rear thruster and the airflow thru the rotor would finally produce lift. With gyrocopter you need air moving front to back across the main rotor to provide lift. If you stall main rotor you to have altitude and quick reflex to recover. There are flying maneuver that only a gyrocopter can do and no other aircraft can but it takes skill to pull off.
+KutWrite it's not the thrust what's the picture of the blades change and you have to use an electric or hydraulic deal to get the rotor spinning on the ground the wheels hold it from turning round and round cheese
An Icon A5 with blades instead of wings would be cool.
I'm still convinced these things fly on pixie dust.
In the Navy we called helicopters the "whores of the air - no visible means of support."
with no visible means of vertical take off , i suspect the carter was heading into a 15 mph wind ..i hovered an RAF 2000 over a field in long island not far from brookhaven and gabreski airports..there was a 12 to 15 mph breeze ..it was a simple matter of lifting the nose and holding the throttle steady ...jim logan was the instructor....world class ..i was the student...
Hi Duggy Dugg I also have ben hovering my magni gyro in strong wind
+Arthur Gemperle
I had a very nice ride in a magni some years back at mentone
Is anyone instructing around Long Island these days in gyrocopters?
Where is the 18A????
ผมชอบรุน่นี้ราคาเท่าไร
The Carter with the full wings would surely have been the best one with a bit more power and a transition to fixed wing by fully braking the rotor to a stop with fitting control surfaces 8n the wings and having the best of both worlds fixed wing and rotor with a rear pusher plus vertical lift and a reasonable price
How could it not have been a success if the quality was as good as possible
the future that never occured
0:55 , Where can I buy this kind of plane ?
Thanks for watching
You can't buy that Gyrocopter because it is only a demonstrator and prototype
Shame about the Rotodyne . What a waste ! Wales UK
Мне больше всего понравился LFINO 1:22👍👌

An autogyro/gyrocopter has an unpowered rotor. These appear to be hybrids.
Amazing how outdate all this stuff is quadracopter UAVs have already took almost all jobs from this aircraft
The music track makes it hard to follow the narration.
0:54 Looks like 30 Kn Headwind, :-))
I didn't like the tail flutter: 3:02
Makes the Carter Copter back end look flimsy. But the next shot showed a twin boom tail setup which looked more rigid.
@5:30 Cruise at 480 MPH with an auto gyro???
You are right 480 MPH is far fetched , it is the future far away.Rotodyne in 1960 did almost 200 MPH impressive
Amazing what they did in the 50's and 60's ! Thanks for the reply.
Como é que eu faço para ganhar um kkklll
where's the tail rotor? thanks
Thanks for watching
On a Gyrocopter you don't need a tail rotor.
The rotor is driven by the air flow moving forward therefore is no torque on the body. On a helicopter the rotor is driven by the engine, while the rotor turns the body wants to turn the opposite way that's why you need a tail rotor to stop that.
This is not the case on a Gyrocopter
@@ArthurGemperle Thank you very much sir
Yes, this video would be vastly improved by getting rid of the ghastly music. ..! 🙄
So help me understand this…
Without a tail rotor, there is no way it can hover for a long time. The only way I believe they accomplished this is by doing this…
Pre rotate the rotor to a much higher rpm than a normal gyro can do.
Use a rotor with adjustable pitch
Once rotor is up to speed, launch it up and gain altitude
Pitch up and use the motor at the back to gain speed and autorotate the main blades back to normal operating speeds
Fly it like a normal gyrocopter.
This is an interesting concept which I never thought of before. If I got the process wrong, someone please correct me. I bought an MTO sport recently and don’t know too much about autogyros.
@AymanRacing You are absolutely right with your description. Congratulations for your new Gyrocopter.
Just to let you know ELA EVOC is also a Jump take-off Gyrocopter bringing out.
Gyrocopters are a combination of helicopters and autogyros.
Strange looking thing a heliplane
Строим лопость гироплана
Good video, but you forgot some, notably the Cierva C.40 of 1938, Pitcairn PA-36 of 1939 (ua-cam.com/video/iAENPTmjBCg/v-deo.html), and the Air & Space (originally Umbaugh) 18A (ua-cam.com/video/wfrBfgarTaY/v-deo.html). There were others, built before and during the Second World War.
The new idea for a versatile aircraft - ua-cam.com/video/0M5YRprqh5c/v-deo.html
Electric generator/motors will revolutionise gyrocopters.
Some of these Vertical Takeoff-planes/"copters" can only lift for some meters and cannot land vertical, so have no real copter-function.
I thought the entire point of a gyrocopter or autogyro was that the rotors weren't powered, thus, VTOL shouldn't be possible. With powered rotors, most of these are helicopters by definition.
I thought gyrocopters needed a small runway to take off. most of them do right? I am very surprised to see this video of gyrocopters taking off vertically.
Thanks for watching, you are right most of the Gyrocopter needs a small runway. The vertical take off are very few and very complicated to fly. I have flown with my Magni Gyrocopter almost 1900hr. that is more than 4 time around the world in distance.

Any gyrocopter can take off and land vertically if the wind is blowing hard enough, lol.
