As seen to right, we have a oleo strut, and a gear leg. The oleo strut has a compression animation which uses a translate animation to move up or down according to gear-compression. There are two torque links - the top is called NLGTorqueLink1 and the bottom NLGTorqueLink2. | |||
After the translation animation, setup a locked track animation on NLGTorqueLink1. The center is the hinge of the top scissor arm, the target is the hinge of the bottom arm, target-name is the oleo strut which is translated. Finally, the slave-name is the bottom scissor arm, and the slave-center is where the two arms meet. | |||
