Abstract
The present invention is directed towards a system for rotating a pedestal through the use of rotatable actuators. First and second rotatable actuators having substantially parallel rotation axes are connected to the pedestal via linkage arms and gimbal springs. A coupling mechanism inhibits the first and second rotatable actuators from simultaneously rotating in the opposite sense about their respective axes.
