DISADVANTAGES :-

(a) Increased tendency to low speed wobbles.ø
Obviated by retaining some friction in the pivots.

(b) Increased tendency to high speed wobbles. We
do not know whether this actually occurs or not as yet.

(c) Reduction in self-centering. Overcome by intro-
ducing some positive self-centering device.
