I want to create a helicopter carrying a logo or any element and make it move, and the element is affected by the movement

I want the element or logo to be attached to the helicopter by ropes, and the ropes to have a physical effect with the movement, so that with the movement of the helicopter, the ropes and the element are affected.

    Hello and welcome. What is your question really? Could you edit your post and show us what you have already and where you are stuck? – Duarte Farrajota Ramos Oct 02 '23 at 05:13
  • i still have no idea, what you wanna make? a flag hanging on the helicopter? – Chris Oct 02 '23 at 07:55
  • I think people voted to close this question because there is not really a question. For example a question like Which physics simulation to use to....? or How to simulate a helicopter with ...?) – Blunder Oct 02 '23 at 11:40
  • To me it sounds like it's about how to realise the scene ( helicopter+rope+load/logo) and what physics simulation can be used to simulate the movement of the logo when the helicopter is moving. I would try a Cloth simulation with a Vertex Parent relationship. Have a look here: https://blender.stackexchange.com/q/239911/107598 and here: https://blender.stackexchange.com/a/248324/107598. These examples also use a Rigid Body simulation but I don't think you need it. Animate only the helicopter and the load should follow then. – Blunder Oct 02 '23 at 11:47
  • But perhaps Simulation/Geometry Nodes would be better, since the movement is very slow and sluggish. Which Blender version do you use? – Blunder Oct 02 '23 at 11:52
  • He wants an helicopter that carries an object with the help of cables, the difficulty here is that there are several cables, not just one – moonboots Oct 02 '23 at 16:22
  • A sketch would help, I guess. In my imagination it looks like this: https://news.sky.com/story/sound-of-moosic-swiss-cows-airlifted-off-mountain-pastures-ahead-of-annual-parade-12392637. Why would multiple cables be more difficult than one, @moonboots? One cable for the simulation and multiple fake cables for the show, no? (except you want to have a cable that breaks) – Blunder Oct 02 '23 at 16:41
  • Oh yes you may be right, if it looks like that it will be easier than long cables – moonboots Oct 02 '23 at 16:59
  • So I guess a drawing of what he wants would help – moonboots Oct 02 '23 at 17:15

If there is one main rope then small ropes at the bottom you can do it this way: Create your 3 objects, the small ropes at the bottom are part of the logo (here sphere) object. Give a Cloth simulation to the rope with the top vertices as Pin Group, parent it to the helicopter. Select the logo, shift select the rope, select 3 vertices at the bottom of the rope and press CtrlP > Parent to Vertex:

Result when you animate the helicopter:
