By contrast, a Saab had taut steering, requiring drivers to actively guide the car as it powered through ice and snow.
At slow speeds, the steering requires only the lightest touch of the wide handlebars, but the bike proves stable on the highway.
All that twisting and steering requires about 350 calories per half hour of use.
A disadvantage arose, however, in the higher steering ratio required; i.e., amount of turn of the steering wheel needed.
The steering is fully hydraulic with a variable ratio that reduces the amount of steering lock required at city speeds by almost 15%.
Other pilots have agreed that the steering skills required are fairly rudimentary.
My only other complaint with the SLK320 was with its steering, which required extra effort to keep the car headed straight under hard acceleration.

Since the dense Venusian atmosphere causes considerable ray bending exceeding several tens of degrees, spacecraft steering is required to compensate for this effect while the occultation geometry changes from ingress occultation to egress occultation.
