Dear Action lab dude, (or anyone that can help) I have bought myself one of those nice chunky gyroscopes recently. I'm currently using a Dremel with a custom made rubber bit about the diameter of a penny. BUT.... the gyro, beautifully made as it is, could obviously spin faster than a Dremel.... What do you use? Are you aiming higher too? How fast can you get it going by hand? I figured I might have to make a jig to hold it while I spin it up if I get going any faster then a Dremel..... 😎😎😎 Thanks in advance, anyone that can help... 👍😁

Gyro experiments are one of the bests. It does so many thing unexpected and it’s just interesting to play with it. Perception, self correction, persists direction without any friction (except on axis), direction and speed of perception in different situation, holding a gyro on a spinning chair, alter rotation inertia during rotation, and so on. All these can be easily explained by angular momentum, but still counter-intuitive nature of it makes it amazing.
I love this and i really pleased you have commented on the fact this isnt well taught! its an area of great interest to me in my current project and i hope i can share my results with you in the future. thankyou for another great demo

Yeah, I didn't learn about the full dynamics of how gyroscopes work until my "Classial Mechanics" course in grad school. Undergrad only really spends about 10-15 minutes of class time talking about how the precession is the result of a torque = dL/dt. Good job.
@theactionlab does your friend sell these gyroscopes? this is so amazing I would love to own one.
That's cool. I like how you make this science stuff easy to understand.

After getting a gyroscope today, I said to myself, This is exactly the kind of thing the Action Lab would make a video on. And you have! Thank you! Alway love your in-depth explanations.

This is best illustrated with a spinning balanced sea-saw with a weight on one side and the gyro fixed on the other. The weight end goes up when you turn the sea-saw one way, the gyro when you turn it the other.
that is by far the coolest gyroscope I have ever seen.

Gyroscopes are crazy machines. For myself some of the behavior feels counter intuitive, and it never fails to give me a little wow effect seeing it work its magic.
I love this channel so much
Gyroscope: *I'm spinning.* Helikopter: *Hold my Fan.*
And she said to me; "Don't ever stop the procession baby!"
This man is a wizard. HE KNOWS SO MUCH!
One thing you missed in precession is any touch on the precession is also felt 90 degrees later which is what we have in the case of Helicopter rotors. The hydraulics are actually setup up 90 degrees to the left or right, depending on direction of rotation.
Great video. Can you do a video on a top that inverts on its own when we spin it the correct way pls. I just don't get how it works
They can be gravity neutral if massive. You are one of my fav dudes ever
it's weird that rises up when it's slowing down instead of rising when accelerating
0:55 putting a piece of tape on the top would make it more clear that it's spinning if it needs balanced put two piece on at exactly parallel points. you could also use a sharpie to do the same thing but the tape would allow you to take it off.
It’s crazy to think that in no uncertain terms, this is exactly what the earth does in space, just on a massive scale. In fact the act of procession will move the location of the Celestial North Pole over thousands of years. In fact in about 50,000 years, the North Star will no longer be Polaris, but the much brighter star “Vega” in the constellation Lyra
Very interesting! I want one!
This person deserves to be an international school teacher... There is even practical knowledge and stuff. Not just writing and memorizing formulas that don't make sense... But it depends, whether the goods are expensive or not. If it's rich, it's free... :)

Thanks !!!! Through your video i got the sudden realisation that this must be a possible unseen mode of the spinning ballchainloop and yes it works u can suspend a chain 100% horizontal only with a wheel that powers it and a rotation to keep the precession going... i believe i found something new here .. made a video u can find on my channels latest videos, cant post link here gets deleted..
Hi Action lab, could you please do a video about flowing smoke or 'cold smoke.
Can this be atempted with a magnetic leviting gyro in a small vacum chamber? Is it posible? Does it make any difference?
Im glad you are on the gyroscope subject. There is a company that makes them for small to medium boats that stabilizes in waves. I am wondering if you think it's possible to have a gyroscope in an off road trophy truck that prevents nose dives. I think it's reasonable and could get us video game like stability.

Wait, what? A gyroscope large enough to stabilize a boat? It seems like that would have to be very large and prohibitively expensive. For an offroad truck, one of those that ramps hills like in motocross, I would think you wouldn't want that. You want the truck to easily tilt back as it's going from flat ground to the base of a hill, and then you want it to tilt forward gradually as it's floating through the air so that it doesn't land on its ass. I've had enough dirt bikes to know that landing with the front wheel way up in the air isn't ideal even if you're landing on flat ground. It also seems like the truck might try to roll to the left or right (just like in the video) as forces influence it to tilt forward or backwards. I picture the truck launching off the hill leaning to one side and then landing on the opposite side, though that may be a bit dramatic.

That was just awesome. I'm pretty sure we're missing something there, that would eventually make the gyroscope lift off ;P
action lab can you please post an experiment video today or tomorrow? i actually need it for research in a project. As you had mixed the water and oil with the vacuum chamber by degasifying it, can you boil it too like 115* celcius to find out if the miscible liquids separate by the boiling of water turning into steam and rising by the process of simple distillation. Can you please consider this and find out the boiling point of degasified water and if distillating it doesnt burn the oil. And can you please do it till the end of today? Thanks a lot
I was going to ask where i could get a gyro like that! I'm sure that they would sell great. Fantastic video. my first experience with a gyro was when my brother made one climb a string when I was 4 yrs.
Damn i love these videos
Indeed gyroscope is a very simple thing the torque of downward tilting acceleration by gravity acted on the lower part of the gyroscope causing a velocity of downward direction acting on the lower part, which then get spinned up to the other position opposing the further tendency of the downward movement of the overall newly lowerpart of the gyroscope, thus maintaining the position of precession at the balanced state of the spinning speed on renewing different parts position of the gyroscope and the downward torque.
Actually someone with something interesting to say…unlike most other vids on Utube! Cool info and cool guy!
thank you ! even though i still don't understand how it work no matter how many vids I watched.
Gyro's are dope. Thanks for the video
What if you attach a gyroscope to another gyroscope and spin at opposing rotations
but also … Helping the precession speeds up the spinning, it's really impressive.
I'm sorry, I like your videos immensly but this time I feel like this one raises more questions than it answers. Since all the parts of the gyroscope appeared to be very finely machined stainless steel, it's very hard to see which parts of it spin, when do they spin, how fast they spin in relation to each other, and what kind of bearing is there between them and how that friction comes into the equation, if at all. Speaking of friction, I watched the video several times, and besides my confusion about friction of what against what causes what, all I heard was what the friction causes, and no deeper explanation as to *why* is does so.
Could you try this adv. gyroscope in vacuum chamber? and compare the fall down times?
Great video
Equilibrium of rotational forces/torque exceeds the gravitational force pulling downwards due to speed of rotation.
Hmm… something like a helicopter stabilizer bar could balance the spin and precession forces to lock the gyro at a desired angle.
I feel like this is a similar effect to the saddle-shape that keeps the ball centered when spinning.
Can you make a video on how will our space look like when fully emptied!!! Plz make a video on it
Finally not a short :D

Please tell me where to buy a gyroscope like the first one shown in the video. I found a few on Amazon but they were all rated as bullsh*t

Good, now could you explain the physics? In mathematical terms. It must be to do with transfer of energy between the spinning top, the processing top and the potential energy (the height of the centre of gravity), with energy being lost through bearing friction and air resistance.
Very nice explanation, however a bit shame that you show no drawing to explain the forces. I think a bit of that kind of illustration is always helpful.
The real question is where did the centripetal force go? You'll notice that as the gyroscope on the string is precessing, the string remains completely still, yet all the mass should be at the gyroscope (that string should be wiggling everywhere but it doesn't). The center of mass looks like it is at the center of the string. I find this an amazing effect that is almost entirely overlooked.
Very interesting. How well does it work in the ideal case of NO friction on the spinning bearing? Specifically I'm referring to powered gyroscopes, like used in airplanes' artificial horizon in decades past, or the Apollo capsule gyros. Is there a difference between a powered gyro that overcomes friction, and one with theoretically perfect bearings with no friction?

@johnburgess : Maybe, the gyro designer used a magnetic bearing, so almost no "surface-to-surface" contact transpired between those concerned moving parts... Hence, longer time for rotation, before it come to a complete halt... The American NASA group hinted, in the 60's decade, that they used a "liquid helium" as a bearing system, for the gyroscope gadget of their rocketships, used in outerspace exploration, experiments, etc.. The gyroscope effect + very efficient bearing system, was the SECRET for a "near 95% efficient", HYBRID type, power Genset- thats why, the media & school sector was tight lipped (power moguls directives??..) - when it comes to the design of the very elusive vision, the "near perpetual machine" dream fulfillment... Gyroscope principle + angular momentum + "fricrionless system", was the secret contraptions, used by the Almighty Creator God (John 1:3 & Hebrew 1:3 & Genesis 1-2 chap.) - in running those myriads of planets, circumnavigating around the sun, non-stop, in "perpetual motion", for thousands, millions of years...

Should haven drawn a few lines on the top of that gyro, would have made the visual alot easier to see for the viewer
Even without friction between the gyroscope and the string, the string would twist enough that the precession slows ,felling the gyroscope
That stainless gyroscope is nice.
my brain is spinning exactly like that gyro
Considering the 'right hand rule' of rotating vector force, what physically happens when you spin the gyroscope in the opposite direction?
when water is added to brime solution will the water flow over the solution or dissolve in it
So are you saying that it's not the energy of the rotating gyroscope that is used in Precession, but the static force of gravity (since in perfect frictionless conditions it would not keep getting lower)?
