Not speed dependant at all. A rate one turn will produce 3 degrees a second turn. In a minute, you will have turned 180 degrees. The faster you go, the larger the radius of turn, but you would have still only turned 180 degrees. One of the reasons published holds have a max speed rating to keep you in the protected area.
