Thanks, Bill, or the report.
Does pumping an already stable gyro disturb it?
How does the gyro react to a sidewise (along the horizontal plane) acceleration? Does it feel if you (yourself), for example, turn around to the left/right while holding the sextant infront of you?
Did lubricating the bearing increase or decrease the time needed for the gyro to settle in?
Thank you in advance.
Warm regards,
Tony
