Historical References; Taken from original work of Percy H. Carr, 1970

 “The motor-driven gyro has many good features if it is not exercised to the extent that it tumbles or oscillates wildly. There are two weights that can be added to the vertical stem of the motor driven gyro. Sometimes they are already on the gyro and sometimes they are on the shelf near the gyro.”
