A force sensing multi-axis gimbaled device includes a multi-axis movement assembly having an outer pivot plate having an opening, a middle pivot plate having an opening, the middle pivot plate pivotally received within the opening in the outer pivot plate, and an inner pivot plate that is pivotally received within the opening in the middle pivot plate. A biasing assembly is in communication with the multi-axis movement assembly, which is configured to impose a first force on the multi-axis movement assembly when the multi-axis movement assembly is pivoted about a first axis. The biasing assembly is configured to impose a second force on the multi-axis movement assembly when the multi-axis movement assembly is pivoted about a second axis substantially transverse to the first axis, and the biasing assembly configured to impose a third force on the multi-axis movement assembly when the multi-axis movement assembly is pivoted about a third axis.
