I was out yesterday and noticed my steering was not responding very well. By the end of day it got to the point where I'd turn the wheel either direction and their would be no response. I was able to use individual throttle controls to get back to my slip. Do I just need power steering fluid, or might this be something more involved? Thanks in advance!

Only you can answer if you need power steering fluid. We can't see the reservoir.

It might be, but we need more information.

You probably have a leak in a hydraulic line. Which would mean, yes, you need fluid after you find/fix the leak.
