Re: pic: 1388: Gyration
I'm assuming you have the gyro spinning the same direction the whole time. Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't the gyro tip side to side instead of front to back? The physics of this gyro looks sideways. If the gyro is spinning to the right and you tip it forward, the force would be forward, which doesn't help with turning.
