Default Trio install

Roll servo is a bolt-in with supplied parts, however when I did mine it threw the rigging out?? Be sure to check rigging on the servo side with the w-730 template! Pitch needs a little fab work, Keep everything like a three sided parallelogram and watch out for interference between the servo pushrod and Pitch pushrod. Good luck and enjoy the great A/P. Sorry no picks I won't be near the plane for a week.

Default Trio Install

I found everything I needed included in the installation instructions from Trio. See http://www.trioavionics.com/Pro%20Pi...nual%203.7.pdf for the Pro Pilot install instructions. They are well written with color photos.

Below are links to photos in my build log. The wing bracket from trio is a direct bolt on to the bell crank. The pitch bracket in the tail is a little less straight forward, but they also provide the parts for it.
