This might be partly my fault , I changed the neelde animation because it
was pointed out that it was too insensitive , but now it has a very narrow
window to operate in , and the ealier discussions and the manual don't jive
.... so I'll look into it some more . The changes I made were about a week
or so ago.
I haven't looked at the instrumentation/nav/gs-needle-deflection while
flying to see if the behaviour has changed there yet...
