Why are auto-connecting controls so important?
My friend Steve Smith has calculated that there is one instance of mis-connected or unconnected controls for every thousand assemblies. On the US contest soaring scene, there are about 2000 assemblies per year. About 50% of all mis-assembly incidents are fatal. Auto-connecting controls does not eliminate the problem, and is not an absolute solution. However, it does go a long way towards reducing the severity of the problem.
