the auto pilot's rod is like a rod of a ram - the rudder is possibly at max angle, but not necesarily - http://www.raymarine.com/raymarine/SubmittedFiles/Handbooks/... [pagina 5 con un dibujo).

neutral Anjo Sterringa : el timón llega a un ángulo, no una extensión, it's the rod pushing the tiller that reaches its end.
