Exhaust thrust deflection control. Another method of stabilisation comprises a gyroscope unit which detects deflections and converts them into electrical signals, which are injected into a computer carried on board the spacecraft. The computer compares the measurements taken from a programmed trajectory and deduces the correction instructions needed. 1, record 1, English, - gyroscope%20unit

Gyro de transfert. La grande problématique du navigateur était de décoller avec un cap vrai le plus précis possible pour se garantir une navigation sans trop d'histoires. Il avait été imaginé un conservateur de cap installé dans une Renault 4L qui stationnait près du bureau de piste. Avant chaque départ en mission la 4L était utilisée pour caler la centrale gyroscopique du Mirage IV au moyen du gyro de transfert prévu à cet effet dans son coffre. Cette solution assez contraignante a été abandonnée lorsqu'il est apparu que le calage manuel de la centrale, avion aligné sur l'axe de piste, était d'une précision suffisante. 5, record 1, French, - centrale%20gyroscopique
