Which limitation arises when increasing proportional valve gain in hydraulic actuator position control systems?

💡 Explanation

When valve gain increases, the system becomes more sensitive to small errors, causing increased oscillation because the actuator overcorrects, then leading to longer settling times. Therefore, increased settling time with oscillations results, rather than improved stability or decreased sensitivity as these require different compensation strategies.
