Frequently Asked Questions

The pack contains the gyroscope itself, a pull cord for launching the rotor, and a balancing pedestal - everything needed to start performing balancing tricks and physics experiments straight away, with no batteries required.
The gyroscope measures 7.5 x 7.5 x 6.5 cm overall, with a precision-balanced rotor 65 mm in diameter. The frame is made from metal and the rotor housing from plastic, giving the toy a solid, durable feel engineered to Navir's Italian manufacturing standards.
Once the rotor is spinning, the gyroscope resists changes to its orientation - a property known as gyroscopic stability, rooted in angular momentum and rotational inertia. Children can observe this by balancing it on a fingertip, the pedestal, or a taut string, making it a practical hands-on aid for KS2 and KS3 physics topics.
