This is just the kitchen science demonstration of gyroscopic precession from this video: • Play by Play Series - ...
Gyroscopic precession is one the four forces exerted on the plane by the propeller. Those forces are torque, spiraling slipstream, P-factor, and gyroscopic precession, the latter of which is hard to understand because precession acts 90° ahead of the direction of rotation of the prop.

Is your gyro spinning the opposite direction of a standard prop? The resultant forces from your applied forces would seem to indicate so.
@userfivehundred3043
@userfivehundred3043 11 ай бұрын
It's spinning in the correct direction, but as pilots we are taught gyroscopic precession is a left turning tendency even though it technically isn't. Presscion's relations to other forces are what actually cause the plane to go left. It is also more oriented towards tailwheel planes who have to pitch down on takeoff

Hey there, thanks for the video. I've been doing some gyroscopic analysis on your video, mainly the end bit when you push the plane with the straw. For some reason I'm getting the theoretical inverse where the plane should move in the opposite direction. Could be my error, but are you certain that the gyroscope is spinning clockwise when viewed from the tail? My answers for your gyroscopic movement seem to match your gyroscope spinning counterclockwise - quite the conundrum! Thanks 😄

The torque is always applied 90 degrees ahead. 1:37 For stick forward, the plane pitches down. Torque is pushing forward on the propeller from 12 o’clock and shifted 90 degrees clockwise due to gyro precession would create a torque pushing from 3 o’clock on the prop. Pushing it from the right causes it to turn left.

@ssairshows
@ssairshows 2 жыл бұрын
P-factor is just one factor of the left yaw effects from the propeller. When the downward sweeping blade is at a higher angle-of-attack than your upward sweeping blade such as when climbing, the downward sweeping blade creates more thrust which contributes to making your airplane want to yaw to the left. There are four factors that contribute to left yaw and in low powered planes like Cessna no one factor is very strong; they come together as a group to influence yaw to the left that is noticeable to the pilot particulalry during high power and low airspeed combinations such as when climbing.

It's explained through Physics. Gyroscopes attempt to remain rigid in space. However when a force is applied to it, the actual reaction of the gyroscope occurs as if that force was applied 90 degrees later (in the direction of rotation). That is called Gyroscopic Precession.

Thanks for your comment. The purpose of this video is to simply show how rudder and elevator (cause) result in an effect on yaw and pitch of the plane because of the gyroscopic precession of the propeller. It's something every pilot has been taught mainly in the abstract; however, few can visualize. Can you be more specific about what explanation you are looking for?
