  • Tell that to the gyro ( Hovering) it won't believe you. as it thought it was flying. now I would like to see a hang glider trike unit ridge soreing.

  • Nice flying. Is that not a collective on the left though? If not, what is it doing on a gyro. Couldn't figure it out. Nice vid Birdy. Always a pleasure watching you fly.

  • Great flying Birdy. For any of you that think this is hovering, that is an incorrect assumption. Ground speed and airspeed are 2 different things. A gyro will NOT hover. Lighter ones will fly slow and this machine is flying not hovering.

  • Hey Birdy-if you are ever in Vic you are welcome to fly my machine-Great Ocean rd has heaps of ridge lift and a usually a spot to land on the beaches..

  • Great flying footage as always Birdy keep it up bud, Hey 310346 go jump in a lake MORON!!! If you were REALLY a gyro pilot you would appriciate the lavel of piloting skill involved-- ASSCAKE!!!

  • Some idiot ..as a gyro pilot myself not impressed at all , pure and simple irresponsibly..!

  • There is a wind if you look close you can see the bushes blowing around. Its small enough that if there was some good ridge lift he could totally grab some hang time. Cool video though.

  • how can you hover? this is a gyro? is it the wind or?

  • Nice one Birdy, that head camera is great on the open machine. How about some mustering footage with that setup. Should be great.

    When we can see where you're looking and hear the engine, it all comes together.

    Thanks.
