      Hi all,


       


      How can I put a coordinate system in the center of gravity in my model?


       


      Thanks

      Go to Coordinate Systems and right click and choose insert coordinate system.


       


      Choose to type in the global coordinates (see below) of the CG a shown below. If you do not know them (CG coordinates) then one way to find them, is by adding all parts in a multi body part and that will then give that info (CG of whole assembly of parts in the multi body part).


      This link/post shows how to do that (get CG): /forum/forums/topic/how-to-find-center-of-gravity-and-moment-of-inertia/
