Hi Tom

How can I access photos from the various builders' logs - particularly Barry's log?

I'm interested in detailed pictures of trim tab installations, especially the anti-stab trim, and stories from anyone who's fitted them. What system have people used to control the servo motors? How do you set up some sort of guage to indicate the position of the elevator trim?

Regards

Hello Lewhitch
Have you registered yet on the forum ? you should be able to access all pictures if you have

The Servo Driver is our own work and can be purchased from us its half the size of a matchbox , and the knob will tell you where its set or there are plenty of methods for working it out, one that I have used is to take a fuel sender chop it down and fit it into the tail so when the trim tab moves it also moves the sweep on the sender , this can then be read on the gauge ie left is empty (down) right is full (up) then we just had the gauge front changed to read trim it worked great all for under $200.00
The servo driver is $250.00 each
you can use it for rudder as well as aileron trim just add more drivers

Regards Tommy
