A self-returning linear pot?
I've been tinkering with some projects in my head, and while running the board at WUSC I figured out how to control one of them: a linear pot. But to make it better for the situation, it'd be awesome to have it return to the center automagically (or at least have a detent in the middle to let the operator know it's centered).
Does any such a device exist (cheaply)?
