Some gyrosyn compass are fitted with a dial switch. In one position, the complete system is in operation. In the other position, the flux valve is shut off and the instrument operates as a free directional gyro. This feature is for use in high polar latitudes or under any other circumstances where magnetic indications are unreliable. 3, record 1, English, - free%20directional%20gyro

Humphrey manufactures two types of directional gyroscopes; free directional and magnetic north slaved ... Free directional gyros are not slaved in the yaw axis. They can be electrically "caged" to a known reference point and then uncaged to gather data. 4, record 1, English, - free%20directional%20gyro

Certains gyrocompas sont munis d'un bouton-interrupteur. Une position indique que le système complet est en opération. Une autre indique que la sonde magnétométrique est coupée et que l'instrument fonctionne comme un conservateur de cap autonome. Cette caractéristique est nécessaire pour l'utilisation de l'instrument aux hautes latitudes polaires ou dans toutes les circonstances où les indications magnétiques ne sont pas fiables. 1, record 1, French, - conservateur%20de%20cap%20autonome

conservateur de cap : Gyroscope qui indique précisément et rapidement les changements de cap d'un appareil, souvent appelé «gyroscope directionnel». Dans la mesure où le conservateur de cap fonctionne avec un gyroscope, il fournit une indication régulière et précise du cap ou des virages. Le compas, qui est quant à lui soumis à l'accélération ou à la décélération, aux dénivellations et autres erreurs de navigation, oscille souvent ou a un tour d'avance ou de retard. Toutefois, comme les gyroscopes sont affectés par la précession, le pilote doit périodiquement régler le conservateur de cap en fonction du compas (sauf si le conservateur de cap est électroniquement asservi au compas). 3, record 1, French, - conservateur%20de%20cap%20autonome

Debris in space. Contrary to low-Earth orbit, there is no removal mechanism such as air-drag, which lets the orbits ultimately decay. Therefore, users of this unique orbit are confronted with a major problem, that of the increasing risk of collision between controlled and uncontrolled satellites. 1, record 2, English, - uncontrolled%20satellite
