I was thinking more of a constantly spinning wheel and conservation of angular momentum but maybe that doesn’t help if most of the motion of turbulence is translational? I’m sure it’s an impractical idea.
You're describing a Control Moment Gyroscope (CMG), famously used on the ISS. They have very high torque output per unit power and mass/volume. They and reaction wheels (fixed axis of rotation) are convenient for spacecraft applications because they don't require an external medium to push against. Aircraft are surrounded by air, so they can use control surfaces instead.
This is used in cruiser missiles for stabilisation
