Default Rearward Gimbal Offset

Hi Guys,

I was just reading the posts about 'Gyrodynamics' & noticed comments about gimbal offset on single rotor gyros.
I offset abot 1/4 to 1/2 inch rearward but I am just copying what has been done by others & doing what works.

Is there any data or a formula to calculate how much rearward offset should be used?

Thanks,
Bob G
