This might be a pretty good way to control a servo. The pot on the left would be your input and the one on the right would adjust the center.  

You could also attache a wind vane to the one on the left, use the one on the right to trim for center, use the output to control an auto pilot motor on a sailboat.  

The boat would turn to maintain its course with reference to the wind. 

I'm thinking about trying this on my boat. 

I changed the polarity of the OP amps and in doing so I removed the majority of the idle current
Any thoughts would be helpful. :-)

Would need use one for each axis that you want to control. Also this is just brain storming. Ours going to need a lit of tweeking in the bench before its put in use.
