Title: Animation of Bike
Post by: falco on September 28, 2017, 07:12:22 AM
Hi all,

I am trying to create a rendering of a bicycle moving across the screen.

I've got everything working ie wheel rotating and everything moving but i'm struggling to find how to speed up/slow down the spinning of the wheels?

Cheers,

Mark

Try changing the rotation degrees of the animation. Higher rotational angle over the same time period will speed up the wheels, and vice versa.

You can do the math to find out the circumference of the wheel (d*pi) and then how far the bike is going (translation value for the assembly) to find out how many turns you need it to make. Or you can just eyeball it.
