Interesting video.

I wonder how it affects bow-to-stern movement? It is a gyro - seems
to me that if it has that much of an effect on side-to-side roll, it
would have the same effect on bow-to-stern movement..

The gyro vacuum enclosure appears to be mechanically restricted to fore
and aft gimble movement, so I suspect it stabilizes on one axis only.

How the fore and aft movement translates to stabilizing beam to beam I
think has something to do with the principles of gyroscopic
progression, similar to helecopter controls of blade pitch.

But, I might be wrong.

Progression is what progressives do. Precession is what gyroscopes do.
Or try to do.
