However if you still want to use this feature there are still two things you can do:
a) make sure the directional velocity sensor is set to "directional" and pointing to the side as other settings might cause severe limiting
b) disconnect the directional velocity sensor if that proves unsatisfactory
c) have some kind of microcontroller which will divide throttle input by a factor of 2 or 3 and input that into the DP
If none of the above solutions help then you probably not have enough turning force on the rudders to need to limit the deflection. I hope this helps!
Thank you for including builds that also used your controller, makes a world of difference for troubleshooting my own implementation.
Yes it's crazy that it actually still works or we'll almost the only thing that have seemed to stop working is moving the ship in full do with the arrows but the dp mode still works like a charm wich is truly amazing 🥰
Now come to think of it I could definitely add a message that pops up in the middle of the display whenever thrusters are not armed while attempting to operate the system.
Cheers,
@Reddixa: Yes, absolutely, just connect the rudder without the microcontroller.
@chevelle_rr1: No wind and a runaway sounds like a positioning data issue. Please make sure the system is fed GPS X into GPS X and GPS Y into GPS Y and not crossed over as in GPS X into GPS Y port and vice versa. Also please make sure the compass is heading the correct heading of the ship. And make sure the calibrating program didn't show the "invert tunnel" message and if it did - you will need to fix that too.
VANE will turn the vessel bow first into the wind to reduce effects of waves and wind on it.
HDG will maintain current heading.
Neither will leave the ship free to turn on its own.

Thanks for your awesome work!
