N4 pulling to the left

I haven't noticed this posted before, but the linear setting has a huge
effect on the pulling to the left.  On my system, with the setting at or
near non-linear, my wheel is offset by 30 degrees or more to go
straight. Undrivable!  With the setting at or near linear the wheel is
offset by maybe 5 degrees to go straight. As it should be!

Hope this helps at least one person.

Makes sense...

But then you'll have to deal with that ever so twitchy steering.

This is happening because the 'pull' engineered into the setup isn't taking
the Controller configuration into account at all.

Which is why we need a trim tab.

Sorry guys :)
