Gidday Rob,

Give Owen Dull a call. He may be able to help. His number is in the Instructor or TA list in the last Gyro News.

Regards,

Waddles.

G'Day Rob,

Not that it helps with your hydraulic setup but give the www.thebutterflyllc.com a look and check out what Larry does on the Monarch with the Metro Launch System. There is a short take-off vid there, less than 30 feet, 5 mph wind.

How's the flyin Rob?

Cheers Mate.

Mitch

Hi Rob
I'm pretty sure the above machine is owned by GYRO RON on the US Forum.

Regards Sam.

Re: Hydraulic Pre rotator
Rob, if im not mistaken that pic is of a Boyette prerotator, and they are cheap, to get, if you can get the ignorant Yanky prick to talk to you and answer some simple questions, then all you have to do is get some money over to him, cause (using his words) he's too tight to have a credit card thing as the bank takes a small commission of the sale. Friggin Yanks(Not you Sonny, your half Ozzy)But the sytem less hoses is only about $1300AUD plus frieght, i nearly got one myself
