    I was hoping they'd show the actual gyro gizmo. Very cool angles though.

    I was wondering that, too. Or is it kind of random?

    From what I understand, it moves freely and can be somewhat controlled by head movement.

    awesome. now I wanna build one :)

    maybe I'll put it on a servo and an actual gyro, so it just stays pointing in one direction while you turn...:-k

    this is pretty cool. it looks like it moves when his head does.

    If it moves when his head does... what about the pressure of gravity? air flow? you know what I mean?? if it moves by head like you tailwhip your bike... and it stays in front, but then air flow would pressure it to back of him?? im just trying to understand how it works.
