I have been playing with this for years on and off for the blades on my helicoppters and airplanes but I have never found a good way. Mostly I have used both point and bones animation but I get lousy rotation and expanding/contractibg blades when run thru the engine.... Any advice or guidence is appreciated... Thanks
