      Hi everybody, I'm looking for some help, in the model attached, The cylinder describes
      a weird movement I've been trying with different combinations but the cylinder keeps
      turning around.

        I'm not sure why this happens, but if you choose convexhull2 as the shape for the cylinder, it looks good...

          This happens because Newton physics SDK clamps the body moments of inertia. There is no way of fixing this other than splitting the pipe into smaller 1m pipes and connecting them with a fixed joint, but it still won't work as good as expected.
