This is a prototype on how to get the angle of a camshaft for an internal combustion engine that uses rockets to push the piston down. The method uses 2 beacon lights 180deg separated on the shaft to define a vector that points from one beacon to the other. This vector is compared to the pitch and yaw axis of the craft to determine a 0 to 360deg angle of rotation for the shaft. Use slider 1 to control the electric motor that turns the shaft. The rocket is set to fire from 0 to 180 degs by default. these can be uodated in vizzy.

I'm up late, whatever.
This may actually work once I take it apart to analyze how it functions and dissect the Vizzy to see if it's compatible with running 4 pistons using 4 sets of cam sensors. As far as the goal was, this is pretty good, though as it is now it is more on the "retarded" side of ignition timing, so I will have to tune that to be in sync with the rockets I will be using. Great work, and thank you. Major credits will definitely be given.
