Bloody hell that looks cool Mog mate..lovely paint and i do love knocked together models and this was knocked together very nice  :thumbsup:
Man i gotta do a autogyro ..something mental and way over powered  :wacko:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Reminds me that I also have an autogyro project (and all the parts I need for it) on the agenda.  :rolleyes:

An excellent job there. I love the roundel on TOP of the fuselage!  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Autogyro GB going on my list of ideas to suggest next time we vote on what to do.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Now that's an outstanding model! Love the camo and the creative use of a Miles Magister fuselage. Well done!

I would definitely support a autogiro GB.

It's all been said, but to reiterate " that does look good"  :bow:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

In the Whiffverse you could make it work.   ;) :thumbsup:
In reality, however, all of the attempts at big relatively high-powered autogiros
were flops that either just sat there showing no interest in leaving the ground
or were shaking and bouncing so badly that they had to be shut-down before
they destroyed themselves.
:wacko:

It turned out that there was a size and power limit to the concept and Cierva
himself was moving towards helicopters before he died in the plane crash.

I could see that Jon..having built little cars with big engines ..like a MK 1 ford escort with a 396 Windsor V8 ..i know how to much power can make everything a pain..with a over powered gyro weight would be a issue right from the start..then balance and so on so so fourth.
Even Cierva realized that the autogyro had basically reached its end.
