We also plan to have a switch to manually override the shifting... low, high, auto.
Hope this helps!

Remember, it will take about half a second for the servo shifters to change gears. It seems unless you have a rock solid shifting algorithm, you will be wasting a lot of time on the field going nowhere and may experience quite a bit of "shift shock".
