That's what I did. A simple manual switch, placed at the helm, shutting off power supply to the motor controller. This releases the solenoid valve, allowing the hydraulic fluid to bypass the pump, and I can get instant manual control of the rudder.
Actually, in normal operation, it takes about 2-5 seconds from the moment I deactivate the AP, until the clutch is released. If you don't know about this, you can get pretty stressed during this waiting time. Is there a way to reduce this time in the settings?
