I am trying to do a FK-IK setup with 3 skeletons for claws of a monster im creating. Ive got it spot on for the right claw, but when i try to do the same for the left claw ( which was mirrored a long time ago) the orient constraint on the middle joint 'goes the wrong way', its 180 degrees out of sync in every axis with where it should be.

Any ideas,

thanks in advance

Have you checked your local rotation axis for the middle claw joint, that is the main factor that affects orient constraints.
