Hi, I'm having a serious problem with my helicopter's flying logic. I was pretty sure everything would function properly with it and it does, except my advanced rotator isnt working. I can move up/down, I can shoot, but my advanced rotator does not rotate the chopper. The wire lights up when i move the left analog stick left/right but it doesnt rotate it like it's supposed to do. So basically the wires are in the right place but it doesnt activate the rotator. What can be the problem and how do i debug it?

First thing I would try is adjusting the strength on the rotator. Do you have any other rotators on the helicopter that may be conflicting with it? Is there a gyroscope? Are you activating an anti grav tweaker with dampening on it?

It's a top-down or a sideways?

I'm pretty sure you alredy know this, but make sure you're not trying to use the advanced rotator like a joystick rotator. I made that mistake once but surely no one is as noobish as I was back then concerning logic systems.

Had to run through the tutorial again to see if that was the problem. Thanks for the advice! I really appreciate it

Glad it is fixed, but there is a good chance now that a collision will cause the helo to topple upside down. If you want your chopper to stay straight at all times but also want to use some sort of rotation (assuming this is a sideway oriented level), you can use multiple gyroscopes: the default one is up straight, two others form the two angles in between which the helo can turn. Activate each of those by moving forwards or backwards. Give them a relatively low speed so the turning won't be instant.
