This is puzzling. I did increase the alt axis velocity limit during
testing of the slip detection system, but reset it to the original
values. Also, I never touched acceleration. I just checked and the
AXELIM block looks normal to me:
  ! Maximum |Velocity| (deg/sec)
  Vel         2.00000000000000        1.50000000000000
2.00000000000000
  ! Maximum |Acceleration| (deg/sec^2)
  Accel      0.200000000000000       0.100000000000000       0.250000000000000
French: please check and see if it looks normal (I'll be happy to
issue slew commands from UW if you want a hand).
