Hi, I have built a helicopter and compiled it with makeMDL.

I animate the rotors using Prop0_still, Prop0_slow, and prop0_blurred part names.

I would like to know how one can animate the rotor head so it tilts forwards, backwards, and side to side as i move the cyclic control.

Thanks very much.

Use the same lever tags as you use with the cyclic. I assume Lever_Collective or Lever_R22_Rotor_Trim and maybe Lever_Rotor_Brake for some parts.
