Toe angle
This option sets the allowed angle deviation between the rudders. The feature will enhance
rudder efficiency at small rudder commands around center position, and it will reduce
vibration and/or propeller/water jet noise.
The toe angle is the angle between the rudder’s 0-position and the rudder’s actual position (t)
as shown in the illustration.
The toe angle will be applied as an offset to each rudder. Toe out (positive value), angles the
two rudders apart, while Toe in (negative value) angle them towards center.
