Claim 19:
20. A centrifugal gyroscopic device, comprising:
a spindle rotatable about a first axis;
an arm coupled to the spindle and configured to rotate with the spindle, wherein the arm has a first end portion and a second end portion, and wherein the arm is pivotable about a second axis different from the first axis;
a first rotor coupled to the first end portion of the arm;
a second rotor coupled to the second end portion of the arm, wherein the first rotor and the second rotor are each pivotable about a third axis different from the first axis and different from the second axis; and
a control system operably coupled to at least one of the shaft, the arm, the first rotor, and the second rotor, wherein the control system is configured to bring the shaft, the arm, the first rotor, and the second rotor into a resonant mode of operation in which (a) the shaft rotates at a rotational rate, (b) the arm oscillates about the second axis at a first frequency at least approximately equal to the rotational rate, and (c) the first rotor and the second rotor oscillate about the third axis at a second frequency at least approximately equal to the first frequency.
