Most people with manual trim do not use an indicator for trim position. I suppose you could use the same or similar sensor that people use for flap position but it is overkill and not needed.

Yes
The trim servo's have a built in pot that is used for trim position indication. |

RayAllen servos with the internal pot work very well on our Skyview. We also have the POS-12 to indicate flap position.

Thanks guys. I didn't even remember until two nights ago I even had electric aileron trim until I found the servos in a box of parts. That's how long my project has been stagnant!
