Gyroscopes are a crucial component to the movement of any spacecraft. They gyroscope occupies a single block, the size only proportionate to the type of ship that it is being placed on. Gyroscopes take little energy to power, and with a small ship with three reactors, one could support two or so gyroscopes.
Function
Gyroscopes allow for the turning of a spacecraft, in any direction, simply by using the arrow keys or moving the mouse around. The gyroscope offers:
- 6 Degrees of freedom
- Prevention of drifting if their is a lack of thrusters
- Overall, stabilization of the ship it is on
More often than not, ships will have multiple gyroscopes to allow for sharper turns and a more responsive ship
