Hello,

Where can I find information about rate gyros? I need to know where to buy them, the specifications, how to go about selecting one, and what is best to use with a microprocessor.

I am involved in a research project in which I will show that an inherently unstable aircraft or rocket may be made to fly and maintain any desired angle of attack through the use of automatic control. The rate gyro is needed in a feedback loop to help accomplish this.

Thank you for any and all pointers on this topic. Please post whatever you know about rate gyros. I am an Aerospace Engineer, so feel free to be as technical as you desire.

Thanks.
