The Gyroscope - Basic Principles

A basic video describing the principles of a Gyroscope, which makes it ideal for certain flight instruments.
This video should be used in conjunction with future videos on Turn and Slip Indicators, Directional Indicators, Artificial Horizons and Inertial Reference Systems.
The video only discusses the basic Gyroscope, basic properties relevant to flight instruments, errors that occur, and a brief explanation of the Ring Laser Gyroscope as used in Inertial Reference Systems.
