Okay, let try something simple first. URudder and LRudder pass through the following coordinates: [54.3,0,6.25] [58.3,0,12.24]
Displacement of the two points in vector is: [4,0,5.99] I believe the XML will be this: <animation> <type>rotate</type> <object-name>URudder</object-name> <property>/controls/rudder</property> <factor>18</factor> <center> <x-m>54.30</x-m> <y-m>0.0</y-m> <z-m>6.25</z-m> </center> <axis> <x>4.0</x> <y>0.0</y> <z>5.99</z> </axis> </animation> <animation> <type>rotate</type> <object-name>LRudder</object-name> <property>/controls/rudder</property> <factor>18</factor> <center> <x-m>54.30</x-m> <y-m>0.0</y-m> <z-m>6.25</z-m> </center> <axis> <x>4.0</x> <y>0.0</y> <z>5.99</z> </axis> </animation> Weird how the X-axis runs lengthwise in FlightGear, while the Y-axis runs sideway.
