Hi Adam,
because some time ago I was involved in a rigid-body MD project, I am 
interested to known if you are  following a published or known method.
I do not  know your rigid-body algorithm, however I would suggest you to  take 
care on rotations,  because they are not a simple task. 
Good luck
Luca
