1. Roll the aircraft to the left. As you roll the aircraft to the left, the gyro should counter that movement by applying right aileron correction. If you roll the aircraft to the right, the gyro should correct with left aileron.

Pitch the aircraft nose down

2. Pitch the aircraft nose down. As you pitch the aircraft nose down, the gyro should counter that movement by applying up elevator correction. If you pitch the nose up, the gyro should correct with right rudder.

Yaw the aircraft nose to the left
