Thames and Kosmos Gyroscopes and Flywheels provide the opportunity to explore the scientific principles of gravity. Build different models using the gyroscope to spin and balance them such as a break-dancer or a vehicle that keeps its balance on one wheel. Assemble a robot using a flywheel as it travels across a thin rail and how the fast-rotating, weighted wheel stores rotational energy and drives a gearwheel that accelerates forward. Best of all, no batteries are required! Just a simple pull of a ripcord that starts the gyroscope and flywheel.
