RC Gyro Positioning Demonstration

[@RoadsideRC]

11 years later...and this is still answering questions!

[@frozenshade666]

It kind of contradict the old drift car idea where more rearward the less gain needed ...

[@RoadsideRC]

@@frozenshade666 Exactly!!!

[@Skydive4ever]

Excellent demonstration, you have a great way of explaining things, thanks for taking the time for this, it was VERY informative :-)

[@000006rapture]

Thanks! I'm about to start using gyros in my FPV setup and this video was very informative.

[@Shaker1978]

Very very impressive and educational video, thank you!

[@ExperimentalAirlines]

That's exactly what started me thinking originally - why the gyro isn't under the main shaft. Heli's make the case quite clearly. Some fixed-wing guys have a more inflexible view of how gyros work and maybe the demo will help.

[@FlyingMerf]

Great demonstration!

[@Solutionsonlypls]

Great video buddy and you have made my day. Thanks Alot

[@Danimal-3D]

Great explanation/ clarification!!

[@welshpete12]

This a great help to me , thank you for posting !

[@chiliidawg1]

Thanks and keep the video's coming!!!

[@opticell]

Great video. I plan to make a flying wing and want to use your foam board. I have heard the wing has camber both top and bottom. If you ever make a video about that, great, I will be working on a 50 to 60 inch wing and could use any help.

[@AsSoulsDream]

wow that makes a lot of sense, now I can build with that in mind it opens a lot of possibilities,,that very much, I have also build a plane with ur wing making procedure and it is currently in the design stage as of right now..

[@letmeplaymystrat]

Great information, thanks!

[@DudeWithDogs]

very great, many thanks for this information!

I NEED HELP I BUILD A NEW AIRPLANE AND I HAVE PROBLEM TO FIND THE CG AND I WAS WONDER ME IF AXIS GYRO SYSTEM STABILIZER WILL HELP ME IN CASE THAT I HAVE WRONG CG

[@harryn2031]

I wonder if this would apply to gyro/accelerometer units? Accelerometers at the top position will complain because of the linear movement which probably is the reason why dead center COG placement is necessary and advised by the manufacturers. This demonstration will be fine and applicable to the HobbyEagle A3-L for example, but not the A3 which also has accelerometers. Any comments?

[@edendunes]

Great help, thank you!!!!

[@garybeer9254]

So for gyros in helicopters why do the manufacturers who design and build them say the gyros have to be on the centre line?? Also what about showing the gyro mounted to the side of the centre line to show the gyro acceleration side to side and the effect that has on the 2 servos?

[@RCcunuk]

excellent video. I have a question. You seem to have the gyros placed midline of the movement. Does it matter if they are farther away from the movement midline or does it act the same Thanks

[@roynnash178]

What is ESky's web address? Great video. Just what I was looking for.

[@MasParaQue]

Thanks dude

[@wernerpretorius5354]

I just got my first gyro system, so to clarify: I can mount the gyro anywhere on the aircraft as on as it is in the same axis as of movement(Direction plane is flying), for example, the nose, tail, middle of the aircraft, CG position. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

[@johnnyr19026]

@000006rapture same here. thanks again..

[@Aw4yed]

Ok but what about the accelerometer that are way more commons todays?

[@chrisvos81]

usefull test thanks

[@66francis]

Does this apply to all brands of gyro? Or just to the brand you tested...

[@alexboon9438]

how to install in rc car v2

[@aldoyosbel1728397263]

I NEED HEPL

[@theailer]

If you ever built a heli you would already know the above to be 100% true ;)
