hpi was first to venture into land based gyros with it's "d-box" drift assist system. It just helps the vehicle to auto correct and continue in it's intended direction. Basically automatic counter steering.

It'll help you go straight on a slick surface like gravel or loose dirt, especially in a rwd vehicle. It can be tuned like the Dbox, I think, to help you drift as well.
