ABSTRACT:
A stabilised mount (e.g. for an antenna) has two gyroscopic rotors mounted in such a way that they can pivot about orthogonal axes. Rewinding of the antenna (to avoid undue twisting of the electrical cables) is liable to cause a voilent destabilisation of the mount because of the gyroscopic action of the rotors. To prevent this destabilisation the rotors are locked against the aforementioned pivoting action during the rewinding procedure.
