ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A flexure-suspended, free-rotor gyroscope having a drive shaft driving a rotor which is arranged to spin about a spin axis. The rotor is attached to the drive shaft via a suspension system comprising two flexure support systems. The first flexure support system radially supports the rotor for rotation with the drive shaft for universal tilting about axes perpendicular to the spin axis. The second flexure support system is coupled to the drive shaft for rotation with the drive shaft about the spin axis and axially supports the rotor for universal tilting about the axes perpendicular to the spin axis. The second flexure support system comprises a cylindrical strut with a flexible flat portion lying in a diametral plane of the strut. The second flexure support system extends through an aperture in the first flexure support system and protrudes an equal amount on both sides of the aperture.
