Abstract :
The requirements for insuring the stability of the loop formed when external feedback is applied to a two-degree-of-freedom gyro are determined. The method of analysis also suggests the means for increasing the damping of the nutation of a precessible two-degree-of-freedom gyro when it is used in a free mode.
