Great job! I'm almost at the stage to solo mine. I've got an AR-1, Corvette Yellow, with a Rotax 912ULS. Based at 88D, Hinde Airport in Huron, OH. Home of EAA Chapter 50. I hope to fly down to the Charlotte area this coming summer. Maybe I'll head down your way for a visit! Have a Happy New Year!

Excellent first solo flight! Mine, also on a white MTO classic, was a bit rougher... Our cockpit layout is the same except for the Ritchie compass. I looked for it online but had no luck. Please share a link to it

Sweet ride. Where is the rotor speed gauge. I’ve been studying gyros for a while. It seems a lot of trike guys are switching to gyros, because they handle wind better. You get more flying time with less work. Look foward to getting a closer look at your new ride.

Clockwise from the left: airspeed, fuel, engine RPM, rotor RPM, oil pressure, oil temperature, compass, altimeter, pneumatic pressure (trim).

Be warned. Don't pay too close attention to his RRPM. Follow the example of this guy and you will be a tail-strike statistic. If you are still moving and your RRPM gets to 150, either stop, or blip the prerotator because you are in blade-flap territory. The standards of gyro training in the USA are utterly abysmal and this is why they have such a poor safety record.

@@halfrhovsquared On his takeoff roll, his RRPM may have dropped to 190, but it's hard to see. It definitely didn't get as low as 150.

@@JeremyBechtold - I didn't say that it did, only that if it gets below 150 to either stop or blip the prerotator to stay out of blade-flap territory and my comment suggests that this guy's rotor-management leaves a lot to be desired. I'd have to watch the video again to see why I made that comment as I wrote it over a month ago and I cannot remember exactly what prompted me to write it. -- Having just watched it again, on his taxi back in, he got as low as 120RRPM whilst still moving over uneven ground. That is a great way to chop off the top of your tail. I've seen the results of a tailstrike at a much higher RRPM than 120 (around 170 - 180).
