Where can I find Viper ?
Google hates those common names ;-)

maybe 3, also one for the interpolation method ?
I would also make the major controls (for models with not too many 
controls),
in this case the rotation angle directly available with a small slider 
on the visual component.

Does LabView supports these ?

I Don't know Traits, so can't judge that.
