Auto-Steering limitations
While the auto-steering system is robust, it does have limitations. Being
aware of this is important for both your own safety and also for the
longevity of your auto-steering system.
The rst limitation is the steering limitations. The auto-steering system
cannot perform sharp turns. These include U-turns and 90 degree angle
turns.
Because of this, you will need to take manual control of your vehicle
whenever you want to do a sharp turn.
The second limitation is the speed limitation. While the auto-steering
system can still follow a relatively straight line at high speeds, driving
at high speed in general reduces the effectiveness of the auto-steering
system.
This is due to the physical limitations of both the hydraulic system and
the AES-25 electric steering system. High speeds require the auto-
steering system to make faster steering adjustments and this may lead to
oscillations in the wheels and poor adherence to the Guidance Path.
The auto-steering system works best when the vehicle is moving at
moderate to low speeds. Moderate speeds allow the system to make
better adjustments and produce higher quality tracking of a given
Guidance Path.
