2009-02-03 - Added a video of UAV Shipboard Operations to the 2+2 Place PAV Animations. Updated the Patents Granted page with the most recent patents.

2008-08-04 - Made a few changes and added a few pages:

2008-04-07 - Made several changes to the Frequently Asked Questions page, including:

  • Made the entire FAQ more generalized to SR/C aircraft, instead of being focused on the CarterCopter.
  • Reordered the questions into a more coherent order, grouped into a "Production & Sales" category and a "Technology" category.
  • Reworded response to "Do you plan on going into production?" to reflect kit production.
  • Reworded response to "How long will it be until I can purchase a Carter aircraft?"
  • Reworded response to "How much will a Carter aircraft cost when it is available for purchase?"
  • Added a question, "Do you plan to sell a kit of the single place CarterGyro Demonstrator?"
  • Added a question, "Do you plan to sell retrofit kits, plans, or individual components? What about to manufacturers?"
  • Reworded response to "If a rotor produces less drag the slower it rotates, why don't you just stop the rotor?"
  • Reworded response to "Can SR/C aircraft hover like a helicopter?"
  • Reworded explanation of retreating blade stall.
  • Added last two accidents to the question on our safety record, and reworded the introduction before that.

Additional Changes to website include:

  • Re-organized the main menu in the left navigation bar of every page, removing many of the links to make the menu less cluttered and more clear, hopefully improving navigation. This also necessitated adding a few new links to certain pages.
  • Made a few slight changes to the Placing an Order FAQ, consistent with changes made to the general FAQ.
  • Added a photo of the partially completed prototype to the main 4-Place PAV page, as well as another page of photos to the Construction Images section.

2008-02-05 - Updated the page on Placing an Order for a Carter Aircraft and the associated Frequently Asked Questions about Ordering a Carter Aircraft to give instructions for people outside the U.S., and to state that it seems most likely that the 4-Place Kit Prop will be the first product available.

2008-01-11 - Add the latest engineering images to the 2-Place Personal Air Vehicle page. In addition to the two isometric images, there are now 3-views of both versions of the aircraft, as well as a side view showing how the canopy will open.

2008-01-09 - Made a few changes to the CGT/CHT 150 Heliplane Specs & Performance and CGT/CHT 100 Heliplane pages. New Range vs. Payload graphs were put on each page, the Empty Weight Growth Factor was adjusted in the weight analysis on each page, the CGT/CHT 100 page was modified to reflect using a single larger engine, and a few other minor changes.
