  13. Now with the new quartz gyros the one legged hopper would be a real
  14. posibility.

  16. It seems to me the quartz type gyros operate in a cyclic, rather than
  17. a rotational mode.  What are the problems associated with this method
  18. compared to rotational.  The accel-decel cycle must have nodes that
  19. would be unusable........hmm.
