About the LSRC

Thank you for visiting the Lone Star Rotorcraft Club (LSRC) website!

We would greatly appreciate it if you’d sign our Guestbook!

If you came here looking for recent club activities, please try our
Facebook page. There is more activity there than on this web site,
which is primarily for information on gyroplanes and flying them.

The sport of flying gyroplanes ^* has come a long way since the days of seeing small ads on the back pages of Popular Mechanics magazine. Back then you had to mail in your request for information and then wait for what seemed like forever for the information to be mailed back to you. Now, with just a few keystrokes and mouse-clicks, your computer will answer all your questions about the world of gyros — what the sport is all about, how they were developed, who flies them, where they can be seen, what equipment is available, how you can get training, and most importantly, how you can join us!

There are a growing number of excellent websites offering you the very information you are looking for right now. We are one of those sites and have been around since 2016. Since we may not have the answers to all of your questions here yet, you will find plenty of links to the sites we like to visit, too. We hope you find everything you need. If you’ve ever dreamed of flying like a bird, gyroplanes are about as close as you can get. We hope to see you soon. There’s nothing like the thrill of flying a gyro! Read more about it here.

If you are in the Houston area, stop by for our next meeting.

We look forward to seeing you. You can also Contact Us for more info.
