Hi all
Question for those who have installed Vans electric aileron trim, is
there any reason the servo can not go in the right wing instead of the
left?
Thx, Rick

You will have to mirror image the plans........;-)
I don't know of any reason, other than roll servo is usually installed
in right wing, which shouldn't make much difference.
Not visualizing what advantage either wing would have, but have decided
to defer getting aileron trim until have flown for awhile to decide if
the perceived benefit merits the cost and labor.

Speaking of which, does anybody have a digital copy of the aileron trim
installation drawings? I am needing to make some adjustments on one of
them and need to know how it is installed.
Thanks and do not archive

Just my 2c, i use aileron trim on every flight and consider it
standard equipment. Otherwise, you will have to constantly apply aileron
force (when not on autopilot) to fly wings level as weight varies side
to side.

Depending on how often you fly alone and how far, I have used my trim, but
the truth is I dont see a real benefit to it. I use the fuel on the left
side first and that usually balances out the plane for me, I have a tab on
the rudder, works fine for me. No regrets with not adding a electric rudder
trim. My point, You're are right on Kelly. Wait and see if you need it, just
as I did with the rudder trim.

That is why I am waiting. I have flown my Mooney for 14 years with
similar wing tanks, similar loads with all sorts of fuel imbalance with
same pushrod type controls and didn't feel any need for aileron trim.
Recognize RV-10 maybe different, with shorter wings, but since it can be
installed later, I will wait and see.
Usually mods that we have spent money on turn out to be the best, and
the rest...who knows.:-P

I use mine about every other flight. I would install again if starting
over.
You getting close Kelly? Maybe I'll run down there and see your project
this winter when it's cold in SLC.

I use my aileron trim on a regular basis and would definitely do it again if I
was building another -10. This airplane is more sensitive to lateral imbalance
than any other light plane I have flown. I definitely would not install rudder
trim if I was building again. I rarely use it.

I love my rudder trim and use it all the time. I did the same to the 8A and once
out of paint the rudder trim was inop and I miss it a lot. I will track down
the 8A issue shortly and get back to coordinated flight with my feet on the floor.

Keep in mind you are building a superior cross country machine which means long
flights. If you only have one ball you might as well center it. :-)

I use both rudder and aileron trim when hand flying and rudder trim when on
AP. If I was building another 10 I would definitely put both in. The
aileron trim is much more important when solo.....
