Cruise control buttons can adjust the speed on some vehicles. [2] Applying pressure to the accelerator or brake pedal will override the HDC system. Later implementations combine HDC with traction control and low-range gears and have reduced the set speed to slower than walking pace for extra control.
Hill-holders work best for those who are inexperienced with manual shift techniques, or in situations with heavy traffic in steep hilly conditions (as in San Francisco, or Duluth for example). However the same technique can be accomplished by a driver through the use of the manual parking brake lever, coordinated with the brake, clutch, gear ...
Inbound aircraft to London Heathrow Airport typically follow one of a number of Standard Terminal Arrival Routes (STARs The STARs each terminate at one of four different RNAV waypoints (co-located with VOR navigational aids), and these also define four "stacks" [1] where aircraft can be held, if necessary, until they are cleared to begin their approach to land.
To increase or decrease overall lift requires that the controls alter the angle of attack for all blades collectively by equal amounts at the same time, resulting in ascent, descent, acceleration and deceleration. A typical helicopter has three flight control inputs: the cyclic stick, the collective lever, and the anti-torque pedals. [2]
In hexagonal tiled maps, a combat unit's zone of control is the six hexagons adjacent to the hexagon occupied by a unit. [1] The effects of zones of control can vary significantly between different wargame rules. The most common effect is that moving combat units must stop when entering an enemy unit's zone of control. [2] This type of zone of ...
In its most basic form, a forward operating base consists of a ring of barbed wire around a position with a fortified entry control point, or ECP. An ECP is a controlled entry and exit point of the FOB and typically has positions to protect personnel against personnel-borne improvised explosive devices ( PBIED ) and vehicle-borne improvised ...
