That seems the simplest approach . . . what are the pitch and width of the cog-belt?

I like it! :D I can pick up another cogged pulley that has an ID which will fit over the shaft of a pot. Now I just need to figure out what type of pot. Since the VPX will accept an RAC trim position sensor, does anyone know what the spec's are for that? I'm assuming that it's basically a linear pot. -Don Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=464159#464159 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 05:00:13 PM PST US Subject: AeroElectric-List: Re: Trim position indicator From: "user9253" Another builder informed me that the Ray Allen servo pot is 5K ohm.
