Gravity Probe B is a "Relativity Gyroscope Satellite" that will be launched into a polar earth orbit at a 400 mile altitude. Four gyroscopes in this system should be able to measure how space and time are warped by the presence of...

Maybe, if they are always turned off. A well-balanced momentum wheel rotor might weigh 10 kg, and have its center of mass within 1 micron of its rotation axis. Rotation of this moving part during a measurement will directly cause a satellit...

A gyroscope (or gyro) is a device that is used to define a fixed direction in space or to determine the change in angle or angular rate of turning of its carrying vehicle with respect to a reference frame. The spinning mass gyroscope is bas...

You can always build a gyroscope. You have permission. If you build the mechanics of the gyroscope, then you will need to spin it very fast, and this is a big project. I don't know why you mention the RC car, unless you are talking about th...
