Servo Not Responding to Wind Direction on Pixhawk

Hi! I need help getting my servo to respond to wind direction. The Pixhawk is correctly reading the wind direction from my wind vane, but the servo isn’t reacting to it. I know the servo is powered because I can manually move it by adjusting the trim, min, and max settings in the Servo Output section. I also have “Sail Enabled” on and the servo function set as “Main_Sail.”

When I go to Actions and set it to Simple, the servo reacts to a manual change in wind direction for about 2 seconds, then dampens out and stops responding.

I’m new to this, so any help would be great—tips, troubleshooting steps, or even a Zoom call if someone has time to walk me through it.

What mode are you in? In acro mode the sails don’t trim if the throttle is low (which is sails sheeted in on my setup) so I have to remember to center the throttle stick for bench tests.
