What is a gyrocopter?

The Gyrocopters is not something new, but it is a type of aviation that has been used for many years. It is a type of gyro that uses a motor-less rotor in self-rotation.

Apparently, it may look like a helicopter, but it’s not. After all in this case the rotor rotates through the passage of air through it from below. In the event that the engine fails there is no risk as the main rotor would continue to provide sustenance because the air never stops coming and going. Gyrocopters provide one of the safest flights on the market, both during a flight and during classes to learn how to fly them. In the, you can hardly perceive the turbulence or any problem of the flight so it allows the pilot to be calm throughout the trip. During the flight, it has the same behavior as an airplane except that the gyrocopters its wing rotates. Gyrocopters are easy to transport and use, they also require minimal storage space, so you could say that it is easy to have it in a large warehouse.
