Abstract

The present disclosure provides methods for adjusting steering angle and articulation angle in an auto articulation operation of a work vehicle. The percentage of travel of a steering joystick of the work vehicle at least partially determines a steering desired angle change, which can be used to calculate a steering desired angle and an articulation desired angle change. The difference between the steering desired angle and a steering angle detected by a steering angle sensor is used to adjust the steering angle. The articulation desired angle change can be used to calculate an articulation desired angle. The difference between the articulation desired angle and an articulation angle detected by an articulation angle sensor is used to adjust the articulation angle.
