Hi guys I have built a Sonex with an aerovee. The aerovee needed a lot of fiddling to get it working. I have since moved to Oz and have just completed another sonex with a Revmaster 2300. What a pleasure the Revmaster has turned out to be. Easy to install and runs like a Swiss clock. In my opinion i...

Hi Stefan
I see the Qualt in your hanger in one of the photos.
I imported it and flew it with Johan.
I have been living in Australia for the last 5 years and was wondering what had happened to her.
I loved flying her.
Kind regards Gary Butlion

Hi Pierre.Geoff is busy manufacturing 5 tails at the moment.Give him a call.The 2.5 Subaru on the test gyro is developing 190Hp at sea level with the new exhaust-hence the figures-flying with the doors on makes a huge difference.With doors of she is comfortable at 85 to 90 mph at 5200rpm.The new tai...

Hi Pierre.Congratulations to you and Johan on your awsome achievements with the UFO.I have just returned from New Zealand-Completed the test flying of the new tail.It is FANTASTIC.It will be well worthwhile fitting it - biggest improvement is the stability of the gyro above 75mph-roccccck solid.Flyi...

Hi All.I was the previous owner of Pierrs ufo.I have done all the test flying on the ufo for the factory over the last 4 years-including the test flying of the craft that crashed.The official New Zealand CAA report is not released yet but i can say is this-NO STRUCTUAL defects were found.I have well...

Van praat kan baie kom-as n mens bereit is om te luister!Ek het n bietjie ondervinding in die auto conversion game-Het baie tyd en geld spandeer op die subaru-met Steve van SAC.Ons het die fout gemaak en die EA81 engine gebruik-ons moes die EJ25 gebruik(daar is omtrent 12 gyros wat nou met die nuwe ...

At R160 000-00 may as well do what we are trying to avoid and buy a rattex!The Honda is a really good value for money engine with some great engineering.I have met Jan Eggenfellner and he is a no nonsense guy with HEAPS of experience in automotive conversions-I support all the effort that the Soyth ...

Hi guys.I have been following this thread with great interest,hope and anticipation.I have just been on the website and hope the pricing of the KITS is wrong!!!!!please note that the price excludes the engine:80Hp-Eu7918-80 90Hp-Eu9364-32 120Hp-Eu13377-92.These prices are anything but cheap-i hope i...

Hi Callie.The Genesis is designed for the 503 and 582.It will fly great at altitude with the 25 footers.Their is no issue with the 582 and the CoB.Nicolas will confirm this im sure.As far as certification goes im fully aware on the difficulties and process involved in getting new aircraft sorted in ...

Hi T-Bird.Im the agent for Oz and NZ.The single seater will work very well at altitude with the ratex582.We can supply you with 24,25,26,(up to 33foot)rotors.I believe it will fill a big gap in the SA market.Nicolas is great to deal with.I will have my first gyros in Feb.Regards Gary.

Hi Darren.We owned a Sycamore-fitted it with 2.5 subaru and 33 foot Advanced kinetics rotors,3 bladed magnum ivo prop.Weight 398Kg.It flew like a dream.One of the best Gyros i have ever flown.I still believe the eng,prop,rotor combination is the way to go-buy a sycomore airframe and get Johann to fi...

Hi Pierre.How are things progressing with the Helithruster?Best regards Gary

Hi Eben.Looks great-could you tell us some more-ie weight,Hp,expected price etc.Great to see and hear so many great things happening in experimental aviation in SA.

In my mind a single seater must be light and manouvarable-look at the sportcopter,dominator,ross symes,aviomania,magni m-18(just a couple that come to mind).As soon as you use a heavy,powerfull engine you may as well design a 2 seater-why a heavy ,big single seater?Single seat gyros are easier to de...

The Gyroz is still available and can be sold as a kit or ready to fly.We have one that is 80% complete.It includes a BMW1150 that has been test run.Any one interested can pm me and i can send photos.It will be a frustrating,long and expensive process to get the Gyroz registered in SA.Anyone who need...
