Do you have poser? I'd animate the helicopter blades in poser, then you can import that as an animated poser object and animate it further in vue. I hate using vue for animation because the vue timeline frankly just sucks, but poser is very good at animating objects. For helicopters, I'd look at www.vanishingpoint.biz. They have some nice helicopter models with motion blur on the blades. Vue motion blur also sucks compared to this "fake" poser method, and the poser blur renders MUCH faster. Edit: I think for Vue 4 you need the "mover" plugin to import animated poser objects...
