Performance parameters of gyro-compass technique for obtaining heading in satellite vehicle that possesses vertical reference; performance limitations are caused by vehicle motions and noise content of vertical reference rather than gyro-drift; more accurate mechanization involves use of inertial reference similar to stable platform; this provides heading and noise-filtered indication of vertical.
