ABSTRACT:
An aircraft turn coordinator used in an aircraft to sense both yaw and roll rate along the longitudinal flight axis. The coordinator includes a gimbaled rate gyroscope which is connected to a turn indicator arm by a gear train. The rapid rotation or lashing of the gimbaled gyroscope due to air turbulence is reduced by dampening the movement of the gimbal.
