Auto-G2 with Pixhawk PX4 autopilot has already been tested.
see the post on UAV autogyro autopilot experiments on the PX4 forum.
Alexey Dobrovolskiy said:
Could an auto gyro pusher use brushless motors to have vertical take off then transition to forward flight and then re-use the energy from the two spinning gyro motors being spun by the gyro effect of the pusher. I am just having a random thought on this but when a brushless motor is spinning from the force created by forward motion from the pusher wouldn't that also create a charge and with the correct circuitry could that then be reused. I mean then you would get over the problem of having a vtol carrying dead weight when in forward flight. Just an idea.
It's very interesting for me too. Past week I got Durafly Auto-G2, and I want to install pixhawk on it. It seems that ArduPlane firmware should work on autogyro. Any comments?
I see this thread has gone dead, but I was wondering if anyone has tried a Pixhawk in an Auto Gyro yet. I was thinking of getting the HobbyKing Super G.

It seems to have enough space inside it for all the components. It might be a good test bed. Thoughts?

give this a look.

Anybody found a bigish pusher type yet??
Just found this

Must be something out there
Probably the coolest gyro ever built!
As I recall they get good reports on RCGroups

Do any of you have any idea of how much of a payload your recommended projects can carry? I figure I can fit some pretty smart flight controls, data link, a camera, and one or two sensors in a small package well under 5 ounces.
