A system for mounting a gimbal assembly to expand the range of angular motion of the gimbals and to permit direct connections to the gimbals. Two counter rotating members between the mounting base and the gimbal assembly change the spatial orientation of the plane on which the gimbal assembly is mounted without rotating the plane.

A gimbal system comprising: a mounting base; a central support member extending from said mounting base; a first rotary member having a first planar surface and a second planar surface, said first planar surface being parallel to said mounting base and rotatably connected to said central support member, said second planar surface being at an angle to said first planar surface; means for rotating said first rotary member relative to said mounting base connected therebetween, such that the maximum angular deviation of said two axis gimbal assembly from a line perpendicular to said mounting base is the sum of the angle between said first and second planar surfaces of said first rotary member and the angle allowed by the structure of said two axis gimbal assembly; and a two axis gimbal assembly effectively connected to said second planar surface of said first rotary member.
