Why would you point the prop down like that?
I think you could make a better looking nose than using the Fetters flat spot tub????
You are good at this stuff man don't be selling out..... :laughing

Just like Chuck B said, all the new gyros are just a Bensen in a pretty dress...
I still want to make one around a BD-5 body...

Chuck is right.
Not one of them has the "original" design sticker attached to it.
They do however improve the clowning method with some pretty neat improvements!!!!!
The later models have a bunch of improvements.

When you tilt the engine a few degrees down in the front, is effectively lowers the thrustline some, and it also increases the prop to rotor clearance slightly.
Plus that's how Bensen did it.
