Gyroscope Trainer

“Houston, we're in control of the problem!"  Guests find out just what it is like to be in an out-of-control spacecraft.   The goal: to keep from being disoriented in order to regain control of your spacecraft.

Astronauts used a multiple-axis trainer called MASTIF that put their capsule spacecraft into a spin.  They had to maintain their orientation in order to regain control and put their spacecraft back onto its proper flight path.

Guests use their center of gravity and weight distribution to alter movement of the multiple-axis rings in this fun and exhilarating 3-5 minute experience.  This not-to-be-missed trainer, not only simulates the MASTIF, but also let's guests feel the gravitational effects of being inside of a gyroscope. Single and Dual versions available.
