How do I do this? I have three prims - the propeller (flat sphere), a shaft (cylinder), and the hat itself (hollow half-sphere). I can make the entire thing spin, but not just the propeller. Thanks!

Easiest is a propeller texture, and then spin that using texture animation.

But to make just the propeller spin, when it is seperate parts, is alot harder.

As you have to move each piece, then once in a while check to make sure in sync, etc..so alot harder.

I would made a prim, with a propeller texture, and spin that, so much easier.

Put your call to llTargetOmega() in the propellor prim, and make sure it's not the parent prim(highlights yellow).
