![]() "Short Wave Sportfishing" wrote in message ... 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. Eisboch |
