Re: Gyroscopic Steering?
On the topic of Gyroscopes, we tried using one that the disc weight was near 10.5 lbs, and spun at a high rate of speed. I'm sure if Pat sees this thread he can give more accurate numbers. Anyways, we tried it, played with it all season, and it just was not effective enough, given our weight constraints. If we had a heavier disc we probably could have made it work.

Re: Gyroscopic Steering?
at first we had a custom made flywheel, but it was too heavy, then we pocket our more of it and it was still too heavy until we pocket out more and put holes on it until it weighted 4lbs 9oz power by a cim at full speed and it worked pretty well.
