Hinge constraint on tool causes character to move around when first equipped

Help and Feedback Building Support
#1

I’m trying to figure why this is happening and how to stop it. Basically, I have a tool (weapon) that has a part that constantly spins. When the tool is first equipped, the character moves across the baseplate in a circle before the rotating part flies in and joins the rest of the tool. Here’s a video showing what I’m talking about.

Here’s the relevant settings for the constraint.

Any ideas as to why it’s doing this and how to correct it?

#2

Would it be possible to replace the constraint with an animation in the tool?

#3

Unfortunately, I’m not sure how to do that. I know humanoids and rigs can be animated, but this is not rigged, at all.

#4

This may help, but I am not aware of any other solutions.
