    Look into mate relations. Specifically, if you want to relate rotation of one mate to linear motion of another mate, you would use a Screw Relation.

    I'll say it again. Animating a revolute and sliding mate at the same time requires the the Screw Relation unless you have other parts driving the separate motion. But if I recall correctly, your test assembly has the swash plate assembly modeled/mated in such a way that it would not rotate anyway. In the real world, rotating the upper drive ring won't rotate the swash plate. It will only move it up and down. I think maybe you should do a few assembly tutorials. Learn to walk before you run.
