{"product_id":"physics-hack-advanced-gyroscope","title":"Advanced Gyroscope","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere is something inherently fascinating about gyroscopes that captivate almost anybody who observes them. Counter-intuitive motion, with unexpected reactions to turning produce an almost magical effect.This advanced precision gyroscope uses no string or motor to start it spinning, simply allow the contact ball to contact a work surface while rolling it in either a straight line, or in a circular motion.Speeds of over 3500 RPM are easily achievable, and with practice the rotor can reach almost 10000 RPM. The best part is that the gyro can be sped back up at anytime without any need to stop the rotor and attach a motor or string meaning that there needn’t be any break in play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMachined from Solid stainless steel this gyroscope is incredibly high quality and weighs in at a substantial 428g. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat mass provides a substantial rotor that is purposefully designed to maximise the performance of the gyroscope. The discus form of this instrument allows many effects to be observed by simply placing the gyroscope on its side that would usually require gimbals.The elegant stand, also machined from solid stainless steel uses three ball bearings to minimise friction with the precessing gyroscope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis leads to fascinating and unique motions being observed, where the precessing gyroscope will actually elevate over time, until fully vertical where most other gyroscopes simply slowly descend. Once vertical, the gyro is free to spin on the unique bearing arrangement. It is a striking reaction.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PHYSICS HACK","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53258217029975,"sku":"253-PH-GYRO","price":120.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1004\/4545\/4679\/files\/Physics-Hack-Advanced-Gyroscope8_2ac2a4a5-ccea-4930-8492-88939ae62466.jpg?v=1775732805","url":"https:\/\/jpgamesltd.co.uk\/products\/physics-hack-advanced-gyroscope","provider":"JP GAMES LTD","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
