The joystick’s electronics manage the complex task of converting
joystick input into the gear, throttle, and steering outputs required
to move the boat in the commanded direction. To accommodate a
variety of hull designs and motor/propeller configurations, there are
a large number of parameters used by the joystick control. You will
tune these parameters in this part of the installation.
Figure 9-2 shows an overview of the tuning procedure. Each step is
detailed in the sections that follow.
