The older type vacuum-driven attitude indicators have bank limits of approximately 100° to 110°, and pitch limits of 60° to 70°. These limits are imposed by the mechanical construction of the gyroscope. Modern designs frequently exceed these limits.

Electrically driven gyros can be designed to display 360° movement in any axis.
