An energizing and test circuit for a gyroscope spin motor which in addition to having a set of energizing coils, also includes a reference coil which generates a sinusoidal voltage whose frequency is a function of speed of rotation of the spin rotor. This signal is fed to a precision tachometer circuit whose output is compared with a desired speed signal for generating a voltage required to maintain a proper spin rate and comprises what is referred to as a "sustain" voltage. The sustain voltage is buffered and coupled to an external test point which can be monitored to determine the functional integrity of the gyro and more particularly the quality of its motor bearings. This sustain voltage is also coupled to drive amplifier circuit means which power the head coil assembly including drive windings of the spin motor. Circuitry is also provided for performing an automated spin-up and spin-down test.
