for keith lea's rotation problem.....
 
I have also ran into this helocopter problem before after
having made the switch to Lightwave from Imagine.
 
I find it much easier to.......
 
#1 parent the blade object to the Helobody.
#2 Go to the last frame of the animation.
#3 hit the object button.
#4 hit the rotation button.
#5 hit numerical.
#6 set the heading at say 1000
#7 flip through the frames or render a wireframe to see if it looks
ok.
 
somuch easier that cycles.

                  actualy, the earth is flat. We just see it through
                  the beams of gravity warped light rays.
