Hi, I am working on an aircraft (modeled in XP 9) and I have build detailed landing gear for it. When I put it in Planemaker as an object, then place it where it has to go, the entire assembly rotates through some bizarre axis way off of where i want it to. How do I get the strut to rotate at the designed axis?

i am not sure if this next question shares the same answer, but i have detailed the oleo and scissor. I would love to have the compression of the strut animated while taxiing. I would like to have the brace move on retract/extending the gear. I know I can animate this but will the animation in AC3D que from the extend/retract command in Xplane?
