| When the acceleration constraint is set to a high level it can make driving much more smooth, but it can also make starting from a stop feel sluggish and you may have to use a lot of stick movement to initially overcome the resistance of the drivetrain. For this reason the TCB has a "nudge" feature that lets you specify a short length of time and a throttle setting. Whenever you start moving from a complete stop, the throttle setting will be applied for the short length of time you specified, over-riding any acceleration constraint. This has the effect of "nudging" or pushing the model forward briefly. The length of time for this effect can be very small, even a fraction of a second. When the effect is over, your acceleration constraint will take effect and future acceleration will be subject to that constraint until the next time you come to a complete stop. | When the acceleration constraint is set to a high level it can make driving more smooth, but it can also make starting from a stop feel sluggish and you may have to use a lot of stick movement to initially overcome the resistance of the drivetrain.

| By adjusting the acceleration constraint and the parameters of the nudge effect, you can obtain very precise, smooth and realistic control over your model even at very low speeds. To adjust the nudge settings, see the [[wiki:opconfig:tabs:driving#nudge_motors_on_start|Driving tab]] in OP Config. | By adjusting the acceleration constraint and the parameters of the nudge effect, you can obtain very precise, smooth and realistic control over your model even at very low speeds.
