Centrifuges don't provide a uniform field. The centrifugal pseudopotential is V(r) ~ Ω^2 / r^2; in effect this means that the pitch near the outside of the centrifuge experiences more "gravity". If you want to study pitch in a uniform gravitational field, you'd either need an absurdly large centrifuge -- the size of the Pentagon -- or a solar sail to Jupiter. edit: also, the Earth's gravity might become a problem.
