The point of a gyro is that it is very sensitive to external forces see http://www.gyroscope.com/youtube.asp?movie=dCcfKBfmyP4 on the second link you used

I wasn’t aware that they’d been developed in WWI, or earlier.

More info here: http://www.allstar.fiu.edu/aero/GSI.htm , or google gyro instruments

Also has a bearing on how powered aircraft handle chaps!.
