Just installed my trim tab servo...
Any ideas regarding what sort of travel I should be seeing on my trim tab in both the up and down directions once it's connected to the servo? (I have no idea whether I'm in the ball park or not because there is not a word of instructions that I can find about installing electric trim in the manual and not much more in the Ray Allen literature that comes with the servo.)
It's very easy to get a lot of travel down, but if I'm going to get more up travel I may have to elongate the slot in the elevator skin to allow the pushrod to extend further because the angle between the servo and the tab attach point gets very shallow when pushing the tab above horizontal.
Has anyone else had to elongate the slot or should I not be expecting so much travel up?
Thanks,
Steve
