Shock Mounting Gyros
I used 4 AN-1000-8's (IIRC) on the red parasol.
It worked well, for a small panel (under 10 pounds).
I also found a steel cup washer that fit the AN-1000's and used
a couple of them to "tune" the panel response rate a little higher.
For the Tailwind I woas gonna do the panel in sections using the
same tricks....

I considered this, however as doing the whole panel is a heavier item to
isolate, you end up using more/larger mounts and it becomes something of a
wash
Yes, but......
As the whole panel is heavier, if it is isolated as a whole, the weight is
more, it will be less likely to vibrate, since the resonate frequency will
be lower.
Pros and cons both ways. Another pro is, if the whole panel is isolated,
all of the other instruments will possibly last longer, too.
