How to find out which steering gear your
wheelchair has
In the case of a wheelchair with indirect steering, control takes place
via the separate drive wheel controller. Indirect steering is used for
wheelchairs with front wheel, rear wheel and central drive.
In the case of a wheelchair with direct steering, control takes place
via a servo motor.
The controller for a wheelchair with indirect and direct steering is
described below.

How a wheelchair with "Indirect Steering"
reacts to joystick movements
"Indirect Steering" occurs by individually applying power to the drive
wheels, and is found on wheelchairs with front, rear and middle
wheel drive.
Travel direction
The further the joystick
is moved in a particular
direction, the more
dynamically the wheelchair
reacts.
To brake quickly, simply let go of the joystick. It then
automatically returns to the middle position. The wheelchair
brakes.

How a wheelchair with "Direct Steering" reacts
to joystick movements
Steering is operated by means of a servo motor.
