love the lil plane

The answer to the animation question is a lot of pain and a little math. The pair of gears on the back of the turrets are just turned via spinblocks at a speed so that their teeth mesh. I think it's 6x the speed of the turrets themselves, which is found via breadboard. The bearings are more complex, and they're done via big blocks of mimics which are turned on spinblocks at half the turret's speed and animated via breadboard. I'm not sure I ever want to do it again, but the result couldn't have been better!

Love the design of this build! How'd you get the gears and bearings to move in sync with the hull guns like that? It's really impressive and gives the build a lot of life.

Awesome concept, I love it.
