Rigidity in space. The gyroscope resists turning. When it is "gimbaled"(free to move in a given direction) such that it is free to move either in 1, 2 or 3 dimensions, any surface such as an instrument dial attached to the gyro assembly will remain rigid in space even though the case of the gyro turns.

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT
L'inertie gyroscopique, appelée aussi effet gyroscopique, constitue la propriété fondamentale des gyroscopes. [...] Il s'agit d'un principe selon lequel tous les objets résistent naturellement à l'accélération ou au changement de direction. (Par exemple, les occupants d'une voiture sont projetés vers l'avant quand celle-ci s'arrête brusquement parce qu'en raison de leur inertie, les corps continuent leur mouvement vers l'avant même si la voiture s'est arrêtée.) Lorsqu'on parle d'inertie gyroscopique, on fait allusion à l'inertie que possède un corps qui tourne. Tous les objets tournant autour d'un axe ont tendance à maintenir une orientation fixe, c'est-à-dire une direction de rotation et une position fixes, si aucune force n'intervient. En d'autres mots, un objet qui tourne a tendance à rester dans la même position. 2, record 2, French, - inertie%20gyroscopique

In a skidding turn, the gyro precesses towards the inside of the turn. After return on the aircraft to straight and level flight, the instrument shows a turn in the direction of the skid. In a normal turn, the gyro precesses towards the inside of the turn. The precession error is quickly corrected by the erecting mechanism. 2, record 3, English, - erecting%20mechanism
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The only really tricky part of the attitude indicator is its erecting mechanism. When power(vacuum) is first applied to the instrument, the mechanism quickly erects the gyro spindle to plumb-vertical in order to align the artificial horizon with the natural horizon. In flight, the erecting mechanism continually compensates the gyro for precession errors in order to keep it aligned throughout the course of a long flight. The design of the erecting mechanism is quite clever. In an air-driven attitude gyro, there are "pendulous vanes" suspended from pivots attached to the lower portion of the sealed gyro housing, one vane for each exhaust port. The vanes are positioned so that, when the gyro is erect, each vane half-covers its associated exhaust port. If the gyro tilts so that its axle is not plumb, the pendulous vanes shift so that one exhaust port is more-than-half-covered and the opposite exhaust port is less-than-half-covered. The resulting imbalance of discharge air exerts a force on the rotor housing at right angles to the direction of tilt, causing the gyro to precess to the erect position. As soon as the gyro is erect, the pendulous vanes return to a balanced condition to remove the precessing force. Pure magic! The erecting mechanism can erect the gyro quite quickly at initial power-up because the gyro doesn’t exhibit much gyroscopic rigidity at low rotor RPMs. Typically, the horizon bar becomes level within the first 10 or 15 seconds, and then its oscillations(caused by precessional nutation of the gyro) are damped out within a minute or so as the rotor comes up-to-speed. 3, record 3, English, - erecting%20mechanism

The attitude indicator (also called the artificial horizon or the gyro horizon) provides the pilot with an artificial horizon as a means of reference when the natural horizon cannot be seen because of cloud, fog, rain or other obstructions to visibility...

Record number: 4, Textual support number: 2 CONT
The attitude indicator relies on the principle of gyroscopic rigidity in space--the rapidly-spinning rotor disk resists any attempt to disturb its orientation. Thus, the gyro provides a stable horizontal reference against which the pitch and roll attitudes of the aircraft can be measured. The "artificial horizon bar" on the face of the attitude indicator is mechanically coupled to the gyro inside, so it remains parallel to the natural horizon. The instrument’s little "symbolic airplane" is fixed to the instrument case, however, so it follows the roll and pitch movements of the real airplane. Consequently, the relationship of the horizon bar to the symbolic airplane is the same as the relationship between the natural horizon and the real airplane. 5, record 4, English, - natural%20horizon

Le gyroscope a été imaginé par Foucault pour mettre en évidence le mouvement de rotation de la Terre. Son emploi repose sur ce principe de mécanique que lorsqu'un corps, qui n'est soumis à aucune force extérieure, est animé d'un mouvement de rotation autour d'un de ses axes principaux d'inertie, cet axe doit rester parallèle à lui-même si l'on vient à déplacer le corps d'une manière quelconque, tout en laissant l'axe libre de prendre toutes les directions. Si donc, on imagine qu'une toupie soit suspendue de manière à être soustraite à l'action de la pesanteur, et de façon que son axe de rotation puisse s'orienter dans tous les sens, il arrivera que cet axe conservera une direction fixe dans l'espace, quoi qu'il soit entraîné par le mouvement de la terre; [...] 2, record 6, French, - fixe%20dans%20l%27espace
