I'm sure many, many others have done this but it's a new project for me. I am the second owner of RV7A 523RM. I want to convert it from manual trim to electric trim and use a "coolie hat" trim button grip with mic, a/p and possibly trim speed switch. I currently have a TruTrack a/p Vision 385 installed.
1. What stick grip works best? I am thinking about the Ray Allen G307.
2. How difficult is is to install electric elevator and aileron trim?
3. Are the Van's trim system kits my best and most economical choice?
4. What about the Safety Trim system on page 55 of the Van's accessories catalog. If I want electric trim on both pilot and copilot sticks is that a good unit to use?
5. Does anyone know of a U-tube video showing how to install this?
6. I want to have trim position indicators, again any thoughts would be appreciated.
7. Does anyone know whether the TruTrack a/p can utilize electric trim during coupled operations?
