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.

So will my ray allen elevator and aileron trim pump the info to the skyview?

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!
