I'm trying to make a possible unicycle prop ( figure) , I'm having a problem setting up the joint parameters for the wheel and pedals. The wheel is the parent to the pedals in the hierarchy .When I get the wheel to spin right the pedals get stretched or distorted and lose their position. When I get the pedals to spin correctly the wheel gets all distorted. Can Anyone tell me the how's and why's on setting up joint parameters or send me to a tutorial. Or give me any kind of idea how to do this. Thanks

The easy way to do it is to turn off the bending property for the wheel and pedals. Select each part and bring up the properties for it, then uncheck the bend box. The hard way (which is what I do) is to delete the deforming channels from the cr2. There's a small tutorial doing this with eyes at www.nerd3d.com -JH.
