Default Classic conveyors and 'orient z' vs rise

Hey all.

I have a few models, where I use the classic FlexSim conveyors.

I use the orient z option to make sure that items are rotated correctly on the conveyors, and this works just fine. Except if there is a rise involved. If a rise is involved, the flow items seem to be rotated along one or more other axes.

Is there a clever workaround for this bug?

Best regards
Christian
