DC Spingate
-
I modelled this gate with 3 spinning rods. I got the rods spinning but cannot find out how to keep it in the right position spinning. I know there is some place I have to change the axes direction but cannot find out where I go wrong.
Can anybody please help me?[img]

I wrapped the spin wheel in another component with the same axis as the spin wheel. This serves as a reference for the motion within the same plane, axes, "world"

Thank you pcmoor for answering. Trying to replicate what you did excactly. Still dont get it.
I opened the "SpinPort" component and made a new component inside having same axis. It still turns horizontal when spinning..? -
Sorry my bad, should have said spin port not spin wheel, which may have confused you.
You have tried it the other way round, you should wrap the component with the animation in another then change this new component to the same axis.
So with your original, select the spinport and the guide and make this a component, then right click change axis, (hide rest of model) and placethe rotation is in reference to the parent environment, so the wrapper acts as a shield or bridge between the two axes or worlds
