Autogyro good

The Soviet Kamov A-7 Autogyro. The worlds first combat autogyro. Armed with three machine guns, and capable of using small bombs and rockets. They were mostly used for recon during the Winter War with Finland and as artillery spotters on the eastern front near Smolensk. I bet if you did things right that little bugger could pull off some interesting operations during action. Lol

Little Nellie got a hot reception. Four big shots made improper advances toward her, but she defended her honour with great success.

Calidus Autogyro // Blackpool Airshow 2023

Seeing this little Gyrocopter zip around and flip in the air was so cool to see and honestly, if I didn’t know the pilot was trained for this, I would be worried they were about to crash.

if you recall i mentioned coming up with an idea for an airplane dragon/aeromorph variant a few days ago, this would be it. introducing the rhiptomorph, or "popdrake", inspired by autogyros and jaculi! c: they aren't very visibly mechanical, as i'm not too good with non-organic designs, but i'm sure you can come up with that part better than i can. :p i wasn't aiming for anything particularly stellar, simply accidentally came up with a drastically different design while trying to make a plane dragon OC and thought it would be neat as a variant subspecies. in spirit and honor of the original concept by @scpkid being an open species, rhiptomorphs are also open with the simple request that you don't do any offensive designs. oh yes, and i would love to see your interpretations of them, so feel free to ping or show me! c: ~Sylverwynd now, i should properly draw the OC that inspired this attempt...
