RCS Gyroscope Controller


The RCS Gyroscope Controller is a block that acts very similar to a Gyroscope, but its strength is based on the number and placement of RCS thrusters on your grid.

The further your RCS thrusters are from the axis of rotation, the more torque they impart when turning.


  • The position of the RCS Gyroscope Controller block itself does not influence turning rates

  • Multiple RCS Gyroscope Controllers provide redundancy, but will not increase turning rates

  • When linked to an RCS Gyroscope Controller, RCS Thrusters will fire and consume fuel while turning
