I will soon be upgrading/converting my RV-7A from VFR to IFR. I currently have MANUAL elevator and aileron trims which I like and I'm very comfortable using (they work well and I have had little to no maintenance issues). It was suggested (for IFR) that I upgrade both trims to ELECTRIC. I am concerned about not having the precise trim control (using ELECTRIC TRIM) that I now have with MANUAL, and I am concerned about ongoing maintenance (trim servo) issues that may become problematic. I would appreciate comments, suggestions and recommendations regarding whether to keep the trims manual or upgrade to electric. Also, which electric trim servos are people using that have given good performance with little or no maintenance issues.
Thanx very much.
Victor
