Every one of my planes has a gyro. It has saved me lots of money by avoiding crashes due to my lack of skill.

Real Pilots don't make excuses, I love using a gyro! We need every little tool to get our aircraft down safely especially on turbulent days!

"Just to have fun and fly", but mainly to return in one piece in order to fly another day.

Well said James!!! Gyro changed my life, it’s way more beautiful when it’s windy, trajectory is straight and level and not bumpy, it’s not cheating at all just more scale and realistic ! :_mrcSalute::_mrcMotionrc:

I concur,  I also believe in the use of a gyro. If you don't have it you can't use it, but it is there if you need it. If I am flying something and I am trying to get comfortable with it then I am going to use it until my confidence tells me otherwise. Some guys make it seem like if anyone finds out they have used stabilization they will lose their man card 😀😀😀

I'm a beginner at RC flight, but a real pilot that fly's real Cessna's.  The same philosophy up there can be applied to RC flight, fly smarter..not harder.  As far as I'm concerned, any gadget that helps avoid crashes and damage to your aircraft, use it.

Gyros are absolutely amazing!! They just make the plane fly amazing. There’s no cheating at all! 💯😎

Couldn’t have said it better myself, I learned to fly without a gyro or before they were even available, but I love them now, the power steering comparison was spot on, James I love your straight forward logical approach 👍👊✌️

3 minutes in and he finally started explaining what a gyro does

I use gyro's only to correct my bad habits, would Be nice if the admiral receiver Gyro came in more channel

Auto level doesn't only have to be used as a trainer feature for beginners either. We all have those moments where we get disorientated. The auto level can be used as an "oh shit" switch as well. So therefore gyros are a great safety feature.
My favourite gyro is the hobby eagle A3 Super 3 and it saves me money on expensive receivers because I can control everything through the gyro using the S.bus feature. It's great. And for flying scale in wind it really helps improve the scale look. A full size wouldn't get bounced around in wind unless it was so windy that no sensible pilot wouldn't fly in it. Tornado in the back ground for example lol

Brilliant intro lol

Great video from start to end.

Have in fact been planning to do a video on gyros (as well as one on CG) myself - where I will most likely go into a little more detail as well. But love that you did this level headed, feel good version - the community needs that.

I love all of mine!

Great video James!

thanks again for the info....

My father as a commercial airline Captain and military pilot flew with gyros in his planes and never once complained that he wasn't flying by the seat of his pants.
His comment was they just kept his butt in line with where he wanted to go!.
Flew private and military warbirds also on the side and would always use a gyro if one was available.
If good enough for my professional pilot dad then also good enough for me as a r.c. pilot!.

Good video! Talking about gyro details and not the debate either!

Setting up is a pain, once dialed in they work great.

Love using a giro James feel more comfortable flying with them fantastic bit of tech. 👍✌

Thanks for your great how to with gyros

I use gyro’s in my aircrafts aswell and will be keeping using them in the future👍🏼
