Hi,

Thanks for the info. But if this term would work correctly even for spheres, 
the well-known problem of 'wheels losing alignment' wouldn't exist. :o)
And as ODE only uses Euler integrator, i think we should find some other 
method to include gyroscopic effects (or conservation of angular moment). 
Any ideas?
Btw, as i remember coriolis force acts against _torque_, not angular 
velocity.
