We are in the last few hours of our project! I want to thank everyone for the support that you have given me and the rest of the Sonic Boom Gyroscope team, we couldn't have asked for a better community of backers.
Thank you all!
All spinning discs have a mysterious behavior. They act like they are defying some law of physics.
BTR Innovations designed a precision ball bearing Gyroscope that refers to a supersonic aircraft passing through the sound barrier; it will amaze and mystify you, your friends and family!
New reward:
The Pledges:
Show the effect of angular momentum to your friends, family or students with the new sonic boom Gimbal. You can easily unscrew the gyroscope by hand to show other tricks. You can add the Gimbal to your actual reward, just add 65$ to your pledge, or choose the new reward at 119$ including ceramic bearings and gyroscope (color of your choice)
Thanks for your help!
New exclusive color for the backers of this Kickstarter!
It is amazing to see that kids, engineers and scientists are still wondering how their behaviors are possible!
Do you know that Gyroscopes are used in many high technology things like spacecraft and airplane navigation systems, mobile phones, radio controlled toys, and remote controller like the Wii, IPhone and more?
Most of us had their first contact with them when we were kids playing with inexpensive toys made of plastic, metal or wood: do you remember all the fun?!
DEVELOPMENT:
We worked on a fantastic design, making sure that it will be unique. We made no compromise on material quality: only the best, anodized aircraft grade aluminium, stainless steel, and brass were used.
You can customize your color choice - Example, you can order a blue gyro, silver stand and green pull handle.
These beautiful objects are built to last a lifetime. Just leave it on your work desk, on a shelf or in a bookcase and see how your friends and family member, young or not, will be drawn to it!
Every gyroscope are carefully finished and inspected before leaving the factory. We take seriously the satisfactions of our customers. We want to make sure to achieve a high level of quality and surface finish.
PRODUCTION PLAN:

Risks and challenges
We spend the last several months making sure that we are well equipped to deal with any issues that may arise with the production of the “BTR Sonic Boom Gyroscopes”.
We have selected manufacturer that has excellent track records. We also have mitigation plans if something goes wrong; we will rapidly get back on track. We have allowed ourselves plenty of margins to deliver these orders and are confident we can deliver within the estimated delivery timeframe.
We will be as transparent as possible to bring everyone up to date at any step of the process. We will keep you informed during the production progression: updates and pictures of the Gyroscopes, packaging, the process... and more! Follow us for the most up to date information.
