Can anyone help shed light on the gyro pictured below?
The blurb for it claims it is an old missile gyro.
It still has some wires coming out of it (I opened up the top and the end of the vertical gymbal looks similar to the commutator/brush arrangement on a DC motor), so I thought it might be interesting if I could get power to it to get it to spin up without having to utilise a can of air duster.
Any help gratefully received.
Apologies if this is the wrong forum, but I figured that with this being an ex-military item...
