I’m trying to animate the blades on the tail of this helicopter and the Y axis is pointing in the wrong direction. Is it possible to edit the axis? I need to rotate the axis 15 degrees but everything I’ve tried affects the object not just the axis.
Any suggestion would be great.
Cheers Kordo.
go into editmode of the mesh and rotate the mesh 15 degrees down to the axis…then rotate it back 15 degrees when you are back into objectmode, that’s how it works 
pure blender basic.
heeeyy… doesn’t work for me!! oh well maybe because i’m using 2.43 and it wasn’t existing in december '06. or maybe - and more likely - i’m just missing something…
Hi, goto to edit mode and see if the Y is ok and watch if the you are on local cordinates
on local cordinates the rotation of Y should be 0 if not rotate to 0, also look to the center of the object.
after done, go back to object mode and check the global and local cordinates …
