Abstract
The torquer section of a gyro includes a plurality of torquer coils symmetrically positioned within a flywheel. A pair of parallel spaced radially oriented salient torquer magnets are located within the flywheel and are equidistant to each respective coil. The magnet pairs increase the flux density within the operating gap between coil and magnets while minimizing fringing flux. The torquer section is secured to the gryoscope housing by mounting materials which reduce unwanted thermal gradients during rapid warmup and high torquing rates thus virtually ensuring consistent torquer coil position over the operating temperature range.
