It's going to take me some time to work it all out but I'm pretty sure it will be good enough!

It should work.
Now there are two small drawbacks :
- if the third rudder is destroyed, then it won't affect the capability of the ship to turn.
- if the parent rudder is destroyed, then the other small rudder (child) will be also destroyed.

I tried your suggested method. I add the third rudder as a child of the second (working) rudder, using coordinates to place it in the right place (different X, same Y and Z), added controller, only Y rotation attivated, but while in 3Ditor the third rudder appear in right place, ingame you can't see it, and if you use the ship's camera, you can see her only from far (i suppose 3rd rudder is finished far from the ship...)
What i'm doing wrong? What coordinates should i assign to 3rd rudder? Node's XYZ, and "default" inside controller.
Best regards,
