Hello, I am making aeroplane and I would like to open and close all (3) wheels with its covers at the same time. Problem is, that:
the wheels and covers have diferent center point and if i make it as the same, it will rotate badly (I have the center points at the place which conects the wheels to the aplane)
I would also like to make it with one thing (empty, bone … i dont know what) to Open the big rear wheel cover, fold the wheel and then close the cover. Is it even possible ? If not, what is the best way to solve it.
Hey, An armature would be best and its all very much do-able. Witold Jaworski has a very detailed project tutorial about the aircraft he is working on (there is a WIP for it) if your really into learning that. You could post the file and I (or someone else) will rig it - but that’s not teaching you, or google “animating a landing gear” also look (search) on this forum.
