Simulation Gimbal Lock

In the attached model I am trying to simulate the Gimbal Lock phenomenon. In order to better understand this singularity, I would like to be able to display the global axes. However, I have not found this option directly... Is this provided in the 3D model or do I have to use a Flexscript code?

Thanks for your help!

I am not aware of an option to display global axes. You can use the On Draw trigger to paint lines that represent the axes.

In the attached model I adjusted the shape factors so the bounding volume doesn't include the antenna. Thus the pivot is properly positioned in the center of the craft.
