Welcome to the gyroscope forum. If you have a question about gyroscopes in general,
want to know how they work, or what they can be used for then you can leave your question here for others to answer.
You may also be able to help others by answering some of the questions on the site.

| Subject: |
inertial resistance, Sandy |
| Question: |
I was mistaken. I insisted that Sandy Kidd’s device applied extra force downward at the axes of rotation whenever the gyroscopes rose upward. This does not happen. There is no extra downward force created in relation to the rise.
This is a thought experiment. Imagine a man glued a two-foot-long threaded bolt to his hardhat and the circumference of the bolt was positively charged. Imagine a forty-pound nut was also positively charged and was set to unscrew upwards on the bolt. Because of the opposing magnetic polarities, there would be no friction. As the bolt was slung to unscrew upwards for two feet, the man would feel no extra force or weight.
Likewise, when Sandy’s paired gyroscopes slowly rise there is no extra force downward on the axes. The resistance downward on the axes is only from inertial resistance.
That little bit of force is almost –zero-.
Sorry, Sandy,

| | | Maybe this post is not understood but for me, it is a surprising discovery.
Once the force to lift is already paid for by being supported, there is no additional resistance to lifting it higher but for the tinniest amount of inertia to get it started upwards. We may prove this in that the scales beneath a lifter’s feet do not register extra weight during the lift and now we know the reason.
Is there no one paying attention, is the site vacated, was my explanation above insufficient, should I try to explain more perceptibly?
