Texas cops get the first police gyroplane


If you are ever speeding in Tromball, Texas, don’t be surprised if you look up and see this vehicle on your tail.
Tromball is the first American city to own the first police gyroplane. This type of technology has been around for a while, and the Auto-Gyro MTOsport is cheaper than the average helicopter. This costs $75,000, while a helicopter costs $1.4 million.
The MTOsport has a rotax motor which allows pilots to descend quickly, and its top speed is 115 miles per hour. Too bad it is not very good in bad weather or at night.
