  • NEW PRODUCT !

Learn how gyroscopes are used for many guidance systems. This is a well-balanced, high quality gyroscope with adjustable bearings. Accessories including: plastic gimbals, rocks and pivoting housing.

This gyroscope has free-running bearings that allow it to run more than two minutes from a single cord-pull start and features circular guard disks on the axle that prevent the staring cord from becoming trapped in the bearing.

The 175gm solid metal rotor has a moment of inertia of about 2 x 10-5 kgm2. The gyroscope is mounted on a gimbal ring and comes with two stands, one with a rotating frame and the other with rocker feet.
A 60cm starting cord and handle are also supplied.

Highly recommended for the classroom setting.
