Fixing BodyGyro/BodyAngularVelocity Issues?

I'm trying to create a rough outline of point to point "flight" in a Super Mario Galaxy-esque way. For those of you unfamiliar with the games, the main method of transportation between two points is using a "Launch Star" which shoots you from point A to point B in a cool looking fashion as shown here https://gyazo.com/063ce47111186adf379adf69b23920db

I want to recreate that flight path using a (most likely bigger than necessary) collection of BodyMovers. So far I have the flight path down to a degree using Rocket Propulsion and a BodyPosition (Solely for the "Reached Target" event as the Rocket Propulsion one seems to only fire once)

As you may have noticed in the gif, the top of the player's head faces their direction of flight and spins across an axis drawn from their head to their toe (Object's Y Axis)

My issues lie with making my BodyGyro objects have the head/top of torso face it's destination and having the BodyAngularVelocity rotate around the local Y Axis. I'll label the problem lines below the full scope to make it clearer.

local sling = script.Parent
local start = sling.Start
local midpt1 = sling.MidPt1
local fin = sling.Fin
local IsLaunch = false --Debounce

start.Touched:connect(function(plr)
	if plr and plr.Parent and plr.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")and not IsLaunch then
		local player = plr.Parent
		local humanoid = plr.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
		IsLaunch = true
		local Rocket = Instance.new("RocketPropulsion", plr.Parent.Torso) --Creates RocketPropulsion
		local Gyro = Instance.new("BodyGyro", plr.Parent.Torso) --Creates BodyGyro
		local AngularV = Instance.new("BodyAngularVelocity", plr.Parent.Torso) Creates BodyAngularVelocity
		Gyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(plr.Parent.Torso.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(1,0,0)), midpt1.Position) --Failed Attempt #1
		Rocket.Target = midpt1
		Rocket.CartoonFactor = 1
		Rocket.TargetRadius = 1
		Rocket.MaxThrust = 10000
		Rocket.MaxSpeed = 100
		Rocket.ThrustD = 1
		Rocket.ThrustP = 100000
		Rocket.TurnD = .01
		AngularV.AngularVelocity = player.Torso.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0,1,0))* math.rad(360)  --Failed Attempt #2
		AngularV.MaxTorque = Vector3.new(9000000,9000000,9000000)
		humanoid.PlatformStand = true
		Rocket:Fire()
		Rocket.ReachedTarget:connect(function() --Side Note is this meant to only fire once ever?
			local Position = Instance.new("BodyPosition",plr.Parent.Torso)
			Position.Position = fin.Position
			Rocket.Target = fin
			Rocket.ThrustD = 100000
			Position.ReachedTarget:connect(function() --Yet this can fire with every Position Property Change?
				AngularV.Parent = nil
				Gyro.Parent = nil
				Position.Parent = nil
				Rocket.Parent = nil
				humanoid.PlatformStand = false
				IsLaunch = false
			end)
		end)
	end
end)

First off, my BodyGyro issue lies on Line 15 Gyro.CFrame = CFrame.new(plr.Parent.Torso.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(1,0,0)), midpt1.Position) where I attempt to have the top of the torso pointed at the target midpt1

My second issue with the BodyAngular Velocity Lies on Line 24 AngularV.AngularVelocity = player.Torso.CFrame:vectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0,1,0))* math.rad(360) where I attempt to have a constant rotation around the Player's Y Axis to simulate the smooth barrel rolls done in the gif shown above.

Thank you for any help given and for reading through this lengthy question! This is information useful to me now, and it will be useful to me forever. If only they taught CFrames in Algebra II/Trig
