When a single joystick is used to control skid steer travel, pushing the joystick forward into the right will result in what movement?

Gradual turn to the right while moving forward

Skid steers use differential steering, where each track’s speed determines the turn. Pushing the joystick straight forward makes both tracks move forward. If you push forward and toward the right, the right track slows (or the left track speeds up) relative to the right, causing the machine to curve to the right while continuing to move forward. The more you deflect toward the right, the sharper the turn; little deflection yields a gentle turn. This isn’t a stop or a left turn, and it’s not an in-place rotation.
