Abstract:

Because of the gyroscope spin motor bearing reliability problem, it is desirable to monitor proper operation of control system gyroscopes prior to missile launch. A study was undertaken to determine the present techniques for spin motor monitoring. This report details that study, presents current methods developed by other companies and by STL, and suggests future developments in this field. Author
