Instruments

Instruments can be used with a Canvas for UI or with 3D instruments for use in cockpits.

Check the Cirrus SR22 aircraft in the main demo scene for a configured cockpit instrument setup.

Warning: For the 3D indicators (non-canvas) to work properly they need to have the Z-axis set as the rotation axis in the 3D modelling software. If that is not an option it can also be done in Unity, see Fixing Z-Axis Orientation.

Instrument hand with proper pivot and rotation. Make sure to set the Unity editor to Pivot/Local instead of Center/Global in the top left corner of the Unity window.
