Fairly straightforward servo system. It works on trains with satellite
wifi.


Not that straightforward I wouldn't have thought. Trains don't suffer
turbulence or bank at 20 degrees. Keeping a lock on must be an interesting
problem.


Never seen a flight simulator cabin close up? The servos in those move a
substantial weight very quickly and precisely.
