Thanks, interesting. As a non-Blender user (it makes my brain hurt) the
references are a bit obscure.
Are the various axes always orthogonal? Can they also be specified in the
alternate form:
<axis>
<x1-m>5.1821</x1-m>
<y1-m>0.221496</y1-m>
<z1-m>0.794147</z1-m>
<x2-m>4.99208</x2-m>
<y2-m>0.114133</y2-m>
<z2-m>0.842884</z2-m>
</axis>
If non-orthogonal axes are allowed they are difficult in the
<center>/<axis> form in the example in the wiki.
Perhaps, when you have time, the information could be consolidated in
http://wiki.flightgear.org/Howto:Animate_models and
fgdata/Docs/model-howto.html
Looks like valuable work to me: gear scissor links were very difficult with
the existing animations.
