In a helicopter having a tail rotor with a plurality of rotor blades extending radially from a hollow rotor shaft which is mounted for rotation about a transverse rotor axis, and having a push-pull rod extending through the hollow shaft and operably connected to the blades to manually vary the collective pitch of the blades, a device for automatically stabilizing the yaw motion of the helicopter includes a gyroscopic assembly having a gyro rotor mounted to rotate with the tail rotor, to pivot about a substantially longitudinal pivot axis by and at the outboard end of the push-pull rod and to automatically vary the collective pitch of the blades in response to yaw motion.
