I was confused because he's just rotating the device like that, but that flat left to right motion is akin to only using rudder while the indicator shows banking. Is that distinction what you're talking about?
I always thought a turn coordinator shows the rate of turn ie how big of circle you're turning, along with the bank angle. I was wrong, those 4 marks on the side of the little plane are not bank angles. I guess you have to look at the attitude indicator for bank angle.
The level marks are wings level, the lower marks represent the bank angle needed for a standard rate turn of 2 minutes. sliding the instrument on the table doesn't represent the true action of the gyro in flight. If he just rolled it on the table to line up the marks he would have been correct.
@@5695q Thanx a lot for the explanation, so the pilot has to try and match up the bank angle to standard rate of turn? I don't know about rolling but sliding the instrument, he's also turning it, right?
Gyro spins and as you bank the gyro doesn't bank. The gyro cage banks and in turn pushes on a lever connected to the little airplane making it show a bank.
@@5695q No matter how perfect it is; There is a high probability of air escaping between the glass tube and the black cylinder. I don't think it's a damper
@@ahmetizmir1081 It's more or less a dash pot, only there to cushion and prevent the gyro from tumbling and slamming into the stops damaging the jeweled bearings.
Уродливей прибора не видел. Подшипники которые там стоят, просто дерьмо. Через некоторое время он просто останавливается. Ремонт не возможен по причине невозможности достать оригинальные опоры, с внешним ребром.
Nice, but I would've appreciated seeing how it responds to bank also, because that's where the confusion usually arises.
The bank indicator is just a ball on a tube, just bank the instrument and it will move
@@pedrosabino8751 That's not what I was asking about.

Very nice. Thank you for posting.
That is so cool! Love analog instruments
I'm here before it goes viral
Thats Cool

Yes, but "how" does it work?
Gyro spins and as you bank the gyro doesn't bank. The gyro cage banks and in turn pushes on a lever connected to the little airplane making it show a bank.
Neat
what high school has an aviation class??
Davis Aerospace and Maritime High School in Cleveland OH. The program allows some students to graduate with a PPL.
Yet another gyro! Some planes must have had half a dozen of them.
Make another where you roll it
A magnet in a glass tube?
damper.

@@5695q If so, no problem. I thought that piston moved the indicator on the front. Thanks.
Is that 24v DC?
It’s 14v DC

Ain't vectors cool? So are cross vectors. Right hand rule and all.
