Since this uses reaction wheels, if you consistently push it in the same direction isn't it possible for the wheels to hit their max velocity and then be unable to correct anymore? In the video at least for the 2d version, it looks like the cube intentionally overshoots the balancing point so it can use gravity to let it get the reaction wheels back to 0, maybe they use that same method with the 3d one.
Pretty cool. Kind of funny that they have all the parts for a gyroscope inside of the cube, but are basically using the exact opposite method for balancing.
