The number of vertices whose out-arcs are pancyclic in a 2-strong tournament

Electrical and mechanical synchronization of two or more synchronously driven gyroscopes, mounted on the same platform, to minimize cross-talk induced drift, is achieved by bringing one gyroscope to a speed which is slightly higher than the other by driving it at a slightly higher frequency. At speed, coincidence of mechanical position is established by means of signals from pick-offs on each gyro and the drive for the faster gyroscope is shifted to the lower frequency. Electrical synchronism is established by restarting the lower frequency generator to instantaneously establish a predetermined relationship between a pick-off signal and the frequency generator. Phase-lock start-up of a single gyroscope by instantaneous shift of the phase of the driving voltage, relative to the gyroscope wheel position, is also provided.
