I've built a robot with a rotation sensor that keeps track of the position
of the steering wheels. If you gear up this movement a bit it gets accurate
enough to keep the wheels straight. You need to add a calibration routine to
your program to find out the full left/right positions and assume the
straight position is in the centre.
Doesn't solve your turning problem....
