The acceleration-sensitive torque caused by radial unbalance due to noncoincidence of the flexure axis and the center of mass of the rotor. Under constant acceleration, it appears as a rotating torque at the rotor spin frequency. When the gyro is subjected to vibratory acceleration along the spin axis at the spin frequency, this torque results in a rectified drift. 2, record 14, English, - radial%2Dunbalance%20torque
