For those of you with or installing rudder trim, is their a kit available?
I've seen a description of Vic's system (hinge on trailing edge) but cannot
find a kit or a parts list. Thanks.

I didn't really look, so I can't answer your question. I'm going to
install a model airplane servo in the bottom rib and drive a hinge
(maybe like Vic's) at the base of the rudder trailing edge. I'm in the
process of designing the pulse width modulator needed to drive the servo
as we speak. Almost there.

Thanks Michael!!! Like most things for sale, there's profit in the $50
for their unit .... a lot of profit ..... and most all of the parts were
in my parts bin. I've got the ckt working already ..... only a few
parts I need to order since some of the values I could come close with.
The other item I have is the ability to do the design, which a lot of
builders don't, and it's fun for me. When it's done I'll publish the
schematic and parts list ..... the shipping would be more than the parts!!!

I re-read my post, and apologize if anyone thinks I'm knocking the
Perihelion design .... I'm not. It really does more than my circuit does
... but for me, I don't see the need. For the elegance and small package
you pay the bucks. Read the 'more information' PDF and you'll see what I
mean. He mentions removing the power ..... and that got me to thinking
(bad thing)that having a pushbutton on the control would be better than
letting the unit sit powered up for hours when you only use it for a few
seconds to set the trim. Hmmm .... back to the catalog!!!!
