ABSTRACT:
Means for varying the preload bias forces in the suspension system of an electrostatic gyroscope as a function of acceleration forces to which the gyroscope is subjected. Under zero acceleration environment, the preload bias forces are maintained at a low level to keep at a minimum the errors due to gyro drift introduced by bias forces. With an increase in acceleration, bias forces are automatically increased, thereby providing the gyroscope with high "g" capability without sacrificing low "g" performance.
