Rudder limit setup
Set the rudder center position, then set the maximum rudder limits or “hard-over“
points for the rudder system.
NAVpilot automatically sets the port/starboard direction of the rudder angle in this
step. It does not matter which way the rudder reference unit arm or linear sensor rod
is installed as this correction will be done electronically. Therefore, it is recommended
that you make both port and starboard rudder values the same.
