Mostly people go from Mexico across the border to the States looking for work. Our tiller pilot, being very confused went across from the States to Mexico in search of work.
Amongst the lads from Mexico that used to work for me at the track an ultimate put down was to be from Pihuamo. Sort of like a Kerryman in Ireland .. very simple, country and red-neck.
So, in honor of his confusion the pilot has been dubbed "auto-Pihuamo"
The default setting of the response level is 5, at which the pilot hunts around and is very noisy. Tuned back to level 1 it settled down and was almost silent.
