Gyroscopic stabilization and power management system

Abstract

A gyroscopic stabilization and power management system that may be incorporated into a plurality of different devices. The system includes a flywheel, a motor centrally disposed within the flywheel such that the motor housing and flywheel rotate together when the motor shaft is fixed against rotation. A plurality of batteries or other power sources are radially disposed and integrated into the flywheel. The batteries increase the overall mass of the flywheel, thereby increasing its gyroscopic operation during rotation, in addition to providing power to the motor for operation. A printed circuit board connected to the flywheel handles all electronic controls both internal and external to the flywheel, including, for example, power control, speed control, electrical/mechanical power management, dynamic braking and radio controls.
