Sorry but the music is a distraction and not a pleasant feature of your video, which otherwise would be a good one. Pity! It would be better in my opinion to let the gyrocopters natural engine sounds be heard with NO music.
I think the lotus floats are a great fit for a trike or fixed wing. Because they need to take off and land at higher speeds, a wide ski like float makes sense and has little effect on their typical 30-50mph cruise speed. I think a much better solution for gyros would be round pontoons Like the back half of a zodiac. The round pontoons would be lighter, more aerodynamic and half the weight. I'll get a video up and show you what I mean(when I don't know- LOL).
Seems to have longer take off distance than a stol light aircraft.

Great! What is the wave height for a safe landing?
Wanyuha1 3 months ago
@Wanyuha1 no wave height because the water would get flicked into the propellor causing the heli to roll into the sea

@bRadicalmagic1 No, it's a gyro. It has to have forward speed for lift.

I might be completely wrong, but wouldn't be a waste to protect the water from the propeller Shouldn't it be the other way around? :-)

how long to convert floats for wheels? And any plan to offer this a commercial conversion?

Is the plastic sheet between the floats to increase the ground effect effect?
NigelLoller 1 year ago
@NigelLoller no, it's to protect the water spray from the propeller.
