so my assumption is that 2 counterotating gyros offer nor resistance to spin, its like they were not spinning
but two counter rotating gyros set in a V shape will offer resistance in all axes of space
so an astronaut in space has the arm aiming up and in each hand he has two counterotating gyros
net momentum is zero
now the astronaut puts his arms in cross and now the gyros are spinning in the same sense so to keep the conservation of momentum the astronaut begins to spin in opposite sense
but imagine a mid point the astronaut put the arms in a V shape
now to keep momentum he begins to spin vertically
but then what happened with the V shape two gyros resistance to spin since the astronaut is spinning with them
anybody know what would be going on here?
