# angularVelocityModelSpace

*Command · Object Manipulation · Arma 3 v2.18*

Locality: arguments **global**

## Description

Gets the angular velocity of the object in model space as a 3D vector. The units are in Rad/s (radians per second) and rotations are clockwise.

## Syntax

```sqf
angularVelocityModelSpace obj
```

**Parameters:**

- `obj`: [Object](../topics/Object.md)

**Returns:** [Vector3D](../topics/Vector3D.md) - angular velocity of the object in model space ([0,0,0] if angular velocity is not supported by the object)

## Examples

### Example 1

```sqf
hint str angularVelocityModelSpace myHeli; // [0.01, 0.03, 0.95]
```
