 I just wanted to let you know I don't think I'll be  getting a trim kit for the Esqual.  I'll save it for the new Lightning. I  decided to try this, "photos", and believe it or not it works great. It took out  about 75% of the tension from the bungee and trims at a slower rate.  Took  about 20 minutes to install and both elevators are working together.   I still require slight nose down trim to keep the auto pilot from searching for  altitude.  Thanks again, Dave

Hello Dave

 I just read your email about the trim tabs on your  Esqual. I noticed you are going to build a Lightning. Are you going to sell your  Esqual and if so, what will you ask?

  

 Thanks

Dave,

     That does look good.  It's kind of funny.  A similar fixed tab trim was used on the Jabiru kits which are also sold at SYI.  It's amazing what such a small area added to the rear of the tail can do.  Thanks for the pics.  Brian W.
