There are two types of mechanical gyros: ball bearing and non ball bearing. A ball bearing gyro will last longer, has greater sensitivity and most have two sensitivity settings you can switch in flight. For hovering you want more sensitivity. For forward flight you require less sensitivity from the gyro. A non ball bearing gyro is less expensive and will do the job just fine for beginners and intermediate fliers. 3, record 2, English, - ball%2Dbearing%20suspension%20gyroscope

Un gyroscope : C'est un équipement indispensable : il assiste le pilote au contrôle de l'anti-couple, l'hélicoptère radiocommandé, du fait d'un régime rotor élevé 1500 tours/minute est très instable sur son axe de lacet. Le gyroscope est là pour stabiliser cet axe sans procurer une charge supplémentaire au pilote.

La navigation des sous-marins est basée sur l'emploi de centrales inertielles. La qualité de celles-ci est, pour l'essentiel, fonction de la qualité des gyroscopes qui les équipent. Elle est liée à la dérive de ces gyroscopes, ou, plus précisément à la constance de cette dérive. On peut en effet corriger une dérive connue, mais si celle-ci se livre à des acrobaties imprévisibles on ne sait plus où l'on va. On a commencé par utiliser des gyroscopes à paliers à billes, genre roulements à billes de patins à roulettes, un peu plus coûteux et nettement plus élaborés, mais enfin ils avaient les mêmes défauts que les billes de patins à roulettes... Leur dérive était satisfaisante mais son évolution présentait des sauts brutaux et imprévisibles. La génération suivante [...] est constituée de gyroscopes à paliers à gaz. Le gyroscope est dans une masse de fréon, il ne touche pas à ses paliers, c'est un film de gaz qui assure le centrage de l'élément sensible dans le bâti. 2, record 2, French, - gyroscope%20mont%C3%A9%20sur%20roulements%20%C3%A0%20billes
