Summary

Duration Duration: 20 min
Keywords Keywords: Closed-Chain Mechanisms, Rotation, Torque, External Force Points

In the previous tutorial we created a simulation of a brick falling on a wavy ground.
In this tutorial we will be creating a Flyball Governor using links, external force points, and shapes.
You will gain more experience with specifying closed chain mechanisms, rotation, and torque.

This tutorial assumes that you have completed the Ground Contact Modeling tutorial.
