Sorry, Larry-I did hesitate a bit before posting that in view of your
electrical expertise.


I think this is a different "Larry" than our regular poster from
Charleston SC.

Larry (#2), it would help avoid confusion if you added an initial or
something to you posting name.

Actually, Roger, I'm a retired electrical engineer so I do have a bit of
a background in electronics.

The autopilot I used had no sensor for speed. Does any? It would seem
to me that there needs to be one because response to the wheel is
proportional to your speed underway.



No, I think they just use the old double-angle-off rule of thumb.
