Can you copy bone rotation to another armature?
BUT if you “just” want the copy the rotation, and since “copy rotation” works within the same armature. I guess you can create another extra bone, (position it to your like-ing) have the extra bone copy the rotation, and do the above (copy location) to that bone. But Than again you can always just join the armatures.
Can a IK bone copy another IK bone?
OR if you have Bone B already connected to another bone, you can have the IK Bone copy the Location of the connected bone. BUT if you “just” want the copy the rotation, and since “copy rotation” works within the same armature.

How do I get the position of a bone in an armature?
Blender Artists is an online creative forum that is dedicated to the growth and education of the 3D software Blender. Just so we’re clear, this is my first forray into Python and Blender’s API, and I have no idea what I’m doing. I’m trying to get the position and rotation of every bone in my Armature.
How to get the position of a bone in a blender?
You can explore the python functions manually using blender’s internal python console. (hit scripts window. scripts>system>interactive console). I you click on “resources” in my sig, you can scroll down to the bottom for a link to the Blender API (if you don’t have it already).
What happens when I add the copy rotation constraint?
At start, the root of the bone is on the vertex group it is copying, and the tail is on the empty. But as soon as I add the copy rotation constraint, the bone flips 180 degrees to point in the other direction. This happens despite the mesh and bone having no rotation.
Why does a bone flip when only one constraint is active?
The reason it flips when only one constraint is active, is because the bone is dead horizontal along the Y axis, it would do the same along the X axis, and the target is dead horizontal from it, along the bone’s Y axis.
