Re: [A/S] Jordan brake controller
The strain-measuring device you mentioned is a good way to look at
it but it's technically a linear slide pot. Jordan says it's rated
at well over 500,000 cycles and the best available. As for
eliminating the cable, I can't figure how that's possible without
relying on an accelerometer or pendulum, precisely what Jordan wants
to avoid. The mechanical linkage is the best attempt yet to
replicate the old hydraulic type controllers that are long gone due
to liability issues.
