  • Gracias!!!

  • Two degrees, pitch and roll, yaw would require a gyro with its rotational axis perpendicular to the one in the video

  • Good explanation. Great!

  • hey i think it's pretty cool too :D Do you know of any other videos where they show how the instruments in the plane work?? Can't really find any as good as this one :P Also would this gyro have 3 degrees of freedom or two?? I'm confused as to when it's one degree two or three.

    Thanks for the upload :)
