ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for suspending a rocket vertically in a three degree gimbal which nly restrains the thrust vector. The gimbal will accomodate rotation of the attitude (thrust) vector in the pitch, yaw and roll planes. The attitude vector (orientation, velocity, and acceleration) is a function of applied moments about the origin. The quality of the attitude vector measurement is most critical and it can be measured to the following precision.
