Abstract
A control for a variable displacement motor and operable in either direction of rotation of the motor (10) and which acts on a servo cylinder (55) to set the position of a wash plate (50). The control includes a signal-setting valve (65) operable in response to the rate of fluid flow through the motor by sensing a pressure drop in a closed circuit line to the motor to set a variable control signal and the variable control signal is applied to the displacement-setting mechanism (56,55) for the motor to have a decrease in motor displacement related to an increase in the rate of fluid flow through the motor.
