Rotors don’t behave like an exact gyroscope though, most helicopters have different then 90 degrees for precession. Do you know how much it is for Mi-8/24? I might have a source somewhere, but I believe it’s considerably less then 90 degrees

Swash plate never have 90 degree tilt offset because part of 90 degree angle will account to pitch horn angle offset. At Apache and Blackhawk it's exactly 45 degree swash plate +45 degree pitch horn.

Gyroscopic momentum Always act in axis perpendicular to rotation and force applied.

The swash plate have most common tilt offset of 180 divided by # of blades. Look at 3, 4 or 5 blades rotors and you will see that it's matches.
