    Dear fellow earthlings

    When you sail your cat, is it important to get some steering feedback to feel what the rudders are doing or is this something one can ommit ?

    I have a remote steering system in mind, with that there would be no rudder kickback you can feel with your hands.

    I'm trying to find out if the rudder feedback is something I have to worry about or not.
