Click on the search button. Lots of info on this topic already out there.
I did search around and read a ton of posts, just wanted to be as current as possible.
It is a decision that I need to make soon and I like to research as much as I can.
... The big thing is if you go electric, where would you like your switches? Lots of people put them on the stick grip but that requires the added complexity of solenoids.

Bill, what makes you say that a solenoid is needed for a stick grip switch? I don't have a solenoid for my basic hat switch on my stick grip.
I did wire in a speed controller for the electric trim (Matronics) but I don't know if that is really even needed.
If you only wire in one stick, no solenoid is needed.
If you wire in two controls then you need the solenoid.
Electrons are light weight and easy to install.

Yes, type-o on my part.What is actually required is a relay...
Hopefully I'll get used to trimming it when I'm hand-flying. On a related note, it seems most people put the trims (two, anyway) on the stick. Anyone put them on the panel and what were the results?
