Hi Rowland,
Is what I understand that with the Matronics, you can use the original switch,
plus stick trims? I think to be able to vary it inflight, or to have a cruise
trim and a circuit trim would be nice. One way would be to use the controller,
or bypass it, but if you bypassed it, you would need the relay again? I need
to check if there is only one suitable relay. Seems to me I will need a relay
if I want to persist with a two speed trim setup. I need more input from current
flyers please. Anyone?
Regards Tony Renshaw

understand some folk have found the natural speed of the servo too high for
their
liking - but as bonus you can add as many extra trim switches as you want.
(eg one on the panel and one on each stick-top.) I have fitted one to my trim
circuit and in my tests so far (not yet flying) I find it is entirely
satisfactory.
In the picture of my panel (I posted a link to it yesterday) the small
hole at bottom left adjacent to the trim switch is for screwdriver adjustment
of the trim speed.
