Re: another stearing question

You have two wearing parts working together and one breaks? What do you think about the part that didn't break? how much extra wear and tear on it was caused by the defective part?

Plus your talking about steering here.

Replace the helm and the cable together.

Re: another stearing question

you have a 20 year old system, time for complete upgrade to rotary, no feed back system. not that much more for a complete new system. your throttle cables are due also. if they have not been replaced.

Re: another stearing question

just like that 32 million dollar equipment, all things have to be correct for expected performance. even the toilet breaks on the space station.
