Is there a way to write a program that will control a hinge actuator? For example; lets say I want to be able to make a single hinge get input from pitch, yaw, and roll for a fin on a starship style ship. In order for it to fall in a controlled manner, it would need to receive input from all three axis's. I don't understand code that well and I'm trying to use this as a way to understand. I think it would use a PID or something like to stay level over a target area (or just stay level without a specific target). But getting one actuator to be controlled by all 3 axis of movement is beyond my comprehension. This is probably way to advanced for a novice to code like me, but I've been able to control a "starship" manually by moving the forward and aft flaps to control the pitch.
I know there are probably thousands of people trying to build starship replicas but I'm really intrigued by the massive engineering challenge this is. Any tips would be helpful, thanks!
you can set the rotators/hinges to use a variable that is controlled by a vizzy program, and able to use a custom pid - the input for the rotator/hinge would have to be typed in like this {name of part with program.flightprogram.name of variable} - so, if the vizzy is on the Command Chip and the variable name is "Fin", the input would be {Command Chip.flightprogram.Fin}
then the rotator/hinge will operate by whatever you set the "Fin" variable to (in the vizzy program)
