Usage

This part functions identically to the Advanced S.A.S. Module, except that it only works in atmosphere. The only physical difference is that the ASAS module can mount other parts on either end, whereas the avionics package is crammed inside a little nosecone.

The Avionics package has a different tuning from the SAS and ASAS modules, making it better suited for aircraft. In particular, the lack of an integral term makes it closer to a "kill-rot" than a heading lock.
