Additional thoughts on settings:
• Use higher motor strength in both axes for heavier rigs and rigs with more inertia, like long mode. Less
strength for lighter or tighter rigs.
• Damping becomes LESS effective with increased motor strength settings. Tune this to taste.
• Full tilt assist is available to 22.5 degrees from vertical, HALF assist at 45 degrees, and ZERO assist
beyond 67.5 degrees, allowing extreme tilts and a natural rest position without the motors intervening.
• When using friction mode, increasing the TILT strength enables the sled to “stick” to a tilt angle with
more authority. It’s similar to the drag setting on a uid head. Use as little TILT as necessary to match the
inertial resistance of your pan axis for the smoothest diagonals.
