STOP ABLE Infinity Rotator(Good for gatling cannons , Radar and tracks builds)

I didnt see any rotator on simpleplanes site that rotates infinitely and can STOP... they rotate without stopping or when deactivating them they rotate backwards....this rotator here can rotate in both directions and literally stop whenever you want... its actually 2 inverted infinity rotators its so simple but i didnt see anything like them here...

This creation is helpful to make a Radar or a Gattling cannon even with the new tank cannon in the new version ( you can make a real GAU-8 now and brrrrrrrrrt on enemies )

Controls : Activate AG1 to start rotating to left and activate AG2 to start rotating to right.... Deactivate both or Activate both to stop rotating in any direction

Here is an example how to use it : https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/FiAo8D/gatling-miniguns

    @crazyplaness Yes. That works. It starts and stops when you want it to, it gives you fairly fine control over the rotator. I've set a rotator input to sum(Throttle) so I can control its speed with the throttle. It's a lot like having an electric motor on a potentiometer. I make sure I give the rotator's speed and the rotator input controller's min and max ranges the same absolute value to make the rotator spin as fast as I need it to. Example: If I set the rotator speed to 10 (1000%), then I also set the rotator's input controller min and max to -10 and 10, respectively. Right now, I have one of these rotators with its speed set to 52 and its input controller min and max set to -52 and 52 to spin up a custom propeller I built out of small wing sections, since that's the optimal rotation speed for the fixed propeller pitch on this custom "electric" engine. This is how I'm building my next unlimited-range aircraft, since rotators don't consume fuel.

    I don’t known if anyone will see this but you can just set the input of a rotator to sum(VTOL) and it will spin the same way

    @Kakhikotchauri1 soo sorry for the long time but i had a hard time recently....anyways i was messing around here and i remembered u and i tried a bit for it...well for "trim" only it didnt work...but i could make it work if u put one "trim" and the other "VTOL"..and to make them work do this :
    VTOL up and trim up / VTOL down and trim down to make it stop immediately
    VTOL zero and trim zero to make it back to zero
    VTOL up and trim down to make it spin to a direction and VTOL down and trim up to make it spin to the other direction

    it does, use vtol then hit b to bring thrust to 0

    this is one configuration with vtol engines and free spinning rotators

    @TheSimpleMan i tried , it dosent throw around whatever attached to it..... IT THROWS THE WHOLE VEHICLE WHATEVER IT IS... maximum best speed is the default maximum speed ( 100% ) dont edit it with overload it would not throw anything ( see my gattling miniguns for example ) also 100% is kinda enough... anyways i will work on it more later ;)

    Could you make a version that’s as fast as it can go without throwing around whatever you attach it to?
