Next week's video for Patrons is the next version of my Gyro balancing testing. This version runs on wheels - it's using two gyros with vertical axis to balance the robot in its roll axis. Seems to be working ok which gives me a lot of hope for using this system in other robots.

Video comes up early next week for Patrons!

I'm kinda excited for all the gyro work. Gyroscopes were used in Mechwarrior as a component that can take damage. Since I played it back in highschool I've always wondered how gyros actually worked within a mechanical "robot". Keep up the great content!

With a wheelbase that is pretty long like that, maybe you can get away with just a single CMG? I guess you can try it and see if it pops wheelies ;)

Interesting clip, I'm surprised how much noise that prototype it was making when it was off balance

One Gyro would have done for this, but I really wanted to test out two with a view to making a one wheel balancing robot! Apparently there's a new Sonic the Hedgehog movie being made ;-)

I looked at a few videos like that. I'd like to reduce it to one wheel though!

That's going to be a challenge. I look forward to seeing it work.
