Gyrocopters, or autogyros, do not fly like helicopters. The motor spins the propeller behind the pilot, pushing the vehicle forward. As the forward velocity increases, wind resistance causes the top rotor to spin, providing lift. For a gyrocopter to remain airborne it must be moving forward. Essentially, the same rules that apply to the take-off and landing of an airplane apply to gyrocopters.
