Hi Guys, Just curious as to whether any of you have had some experience, using a Hall effect potentiometer. I have a home made setup for nose wheel steering, using a normal potentiometer,operating via a Leo Bodnar card and FSUIPC.

It seems to loose calibration fairly quickly, which makes steering a bit of a challenge. Im led to believe that a Hall effect pot is very stable, and would like to go down that route if possible. Any comments would be helpful.

Cheers

I have used the position sensor from TT-Electronics as well. Also the Bourns AMS22B.

But you should have no problem with a normal potentiometer (if it is not the ultra cheapest). I have used potentiometers with the Leo Bodnar card as well. Are you sure you have a potentiometer problem?
