:: : Note that the gyroscopic effect is " not " the main reason a bicycle stays upright, that's a common misconception.

The flywheel was composed of a titanium hub with a carbon fiber cylinder and was gimbal-mounted to minimize adverse gyroscopic effects on vehicle handling.
23.
I have read the linked PDF " Stability of a Bicycle ", Physics today, which seems to indicate that the gyroscopic effect is negligible.

:: : The reason for having counter-rotating coaxial rotors isn't because of gyroscopic effects-it's because you can avoid the need for a tail rotor.
25.
The difference in efficiency is more pronounced when there is swirl present as the gyroscopic effect of the rotation hinders the deflection at the elbow.
26.
A second experiment conducted during a trip to Paris involved a gyroscopic effect of the propeller generated so much torque that the bicycle became unstable.

Yo-yos optimized for looping have weight concentrated in their centers so they may easily rotate about the string's axis without their mass contributing to a resistance due to a gyroscopic effect.
