I'm often asked for a full video on how my windvane steering system works, so here is, I hope, a full rundown of it.. This explanation covers the trim tab type of self steering, the other popular type is the servo pendulum, which is not covered here. I built this system using plans drawn up by Alan Mulholland for his 'Mk3', as the basis. If you'd like to build your own, you can find his plans via this link: https://youtu.be/Wcd9Y5AS6qE?si=5oFE-QAmeY5nO4Ec If you like this video, do click the *FREE* like button, and I'd really appreciate it if you would subscribe to the channel, this is also free!
