Have a potentiometer (pot) give your program the true position of the steering.

Anyway, this is a very simple feedback loop (called proportional feedback). It works pretty well, especially for steering (trust me I know this to be true).
I see, I see. How would I hook up the potentiometer, though? The potentiometers that I've worked with, are small, designed for small electronic circuits...so I can't really imagine how I can hook it up to the steering wheel. I'll check tomorrow if we've gotten any potentiometers from Innovation First and try to figure it out from there Do you happen to have a picture of that kind of setup?

Thanks! Really appreciate it!

Diego
