Another Newbie question!
Just getting ready to order my -7 empennage kit and need some help on the only option question that comes with it.
I see that the electric elevator trim option says that the switch "can be mounted anywhere". I get that.
What I don't know is what the control device for the manual elevator trim looks like, or where/how it mounts in the cockpit.
I really don't want an electric trim, but since I'm going to be a pretty tight fit in the -7 cockpit I also don't want to overlook ANY option that would save me any usable cockpit space, even if only a little.
Is the manual control a wheel, a lever, or what? Where does it normally mount? Would the electric switch free up any space at all in a really tight cockpit vs. the manual control?
Thanks for any info.
