| Subject: | Re: Trimbox deadband problem |
EEA tech Joe Gautheir felt the factory trim tension was way to taunt and
relaxed my trim wire springs. I have been flying my Glasair that way for
nineteen trouble free years.

We were having a little "deadband" in our Glasair elevator trim system,
where you'd roll the trim wheel an eighth turn with no effect on the trim.
I made a little video showing the problem and the solution. (After passing
this around, another builder reported he had a similar problem, but in his
case, the roll pin holes themselves elongated.)
Please see http://members.cox.net/mppalmer and click in the "video of
trimbox deadband problem." It's a 30 second WMV file.
Hope this helps,
