Curious Minds Did You Know? An aeroplane uses multiple gyroscopes to navigate!

This quality gyroscope is a classic toy that demonstrates the power of centrifugal forces. It will defy gravity and stay balanced in any position whilst it spins! A gyroscope is a disk that when rotating, the axis of rotation can assume any orientation by itself and is unaffected by moving or rotating the mounting on which it sits.

Mount it on a piece of string, balance it on the end of a stick or even the tip of your nose and watch the gyroscope remain balanced!

It is operated using the enclosed pull-cord and comes in a variety of different colours.

A brilliant gift for a young, excited and inquisitive mind. Ideal to foster curiosity and encourage scientific learning on rainy days and a fantastic school holiday activity.

Rotor: diameter 65 mm

Dimensions (cm): 7 x 7 x 7.5

Comes in red, blue, or yellow.

Basic gyroscope

I bought the gyroscope for demonstration purposes at an engineering weekend that I am involved with. The gyroscope looks substantial with a nicely weighted rotor, my reasons for buying it. However I have been disappointed with the plastic gimbal framework which has too much movement and easily breaks into its component parts if too much pressure is applied when starting the gyro with the pull-string. I have strengthened the frame by using cable ties, but this is not something I would have expected to do.

Bought this for my grandson, his Mum wondered what it was, I cannot believe I didn’t introduce it to her when she was young! Both blown away with the magic of it.

Very difficult feeding string through hole to start it spinning.
