A few years ago I was hanging out with the 3DHS team having a late night meeting on the flight line. Ben brought up gyros and how they would play a big part in the future of 3D and RC in general. I was lucky enough to recently review the Bavarian Demon Cortex 3 axis gyro and I'm happy to report that everyone that flew my Cortex enabled plane was blown away!

I contacted Joe from Bavarian Demon and he was happy to offer one up to FlyingGiants to give away in this contest! During Toledo this year we shared steaks and drinks with the Bavarian Demon team. They are a fun group!

Bavarian Demon Cortex Info:
The CORTEX stabilizes all three flight axes with its three gyro sensors: aileron, elevator and rudder. Bavarian Demon uses the technology of the HeliCommand/BavarianDEMON X-series and modified it to fit fixed winged aircraft.

• The gyro smooths out flight characteristics.
• High winds are tamed with the gyro.
• New pilots can learn faster with a gyro.
• The gyro adds precision.
• Up to 5 servos/channels can be used with the Cortex. If the number of channels is not enough servos can also be connected via Y-cables,

Contest Details:

• All you have to do is post in this thread what plane you would put the Cortex in if you won and why.
• You can only enter once.
• The winner will be chosen with a random number generator.
• The contest will end September 16th.

Good luck to all that enter to win this killer piece of gear.

I would put it in my Aerobeez extra .because the cortex demon is awesome.

I would put it in my Ripmax Xcailbur

I would put it in my new Extreme Flight RC 83" MXS. This plane flies so fine I doubt anything could make it better so having this gyro would give this doubter a chance to see firsthand what all the hype of gyros is about.

I would sell that thing to someone with a disability!

I would put in my 65'' yak profile. I'm starting to try and learn to 3d and hover. My thumbs alone don't seem to be fast enough yet.

I would have to try it in my Carden 300. If it made it fly more stable and precise than it already does, I would be a true believer!

I would put it on my 104" AJ Slick I am building!

Designing my own EDF jet that I expect will need one of these to keep in the air

Goldwing SBach 30cc to let me come to grips with learning 3d in a way which would be safer for my plane.

I would put it in the 3dhs bigfoot because choppy winds buffet the landing area on my field in autumn and sometimes it's hairy I need a little bit of help, please, help.

EF YAK 91" , TO GET BETTER FLYING SKILLS,

Id like to try one in my Reaction54 turbine jet, to see how it would do!

46 years old... Only flying a few years now... I want to be AWESOME at 3d so badly but lets face it.. Im OLD!! haha

Id love to put a Bavarian Demon Cortex in a EF 91" Extra to make me look like I know what I'm doing!!!

I would like to put one on my 3dhs 92 edge....so I train myself in some of the awsome 3d tricks that are out there!��
