Yes - install it.
The Van's unit is simple, light, effective and inexpensive. While you're at it,
buy the Safety Trim unit as well - another good product. If you doing a top
hat on the stick for trim, Safety Trim is a much simpler way to go compared to
relay decks and such.

I agree with Carl. The -10 is pretty sensitive to lateral imbalance. Thumbs up
for Safety Trim, as well.

I'm installing aileron and rudder trim using model airplane servos
moving a short section of hinge. I used a microcontroller to create the
pulse-width signal.

I don't use it much, but I don't let the fuel tanks get way out of balance either.....

You are in luck.....the Van's trim can be easily installed after the plane
is complete. So you can decide for yourself whether there is a need or not,
before purchasing.

Install it. It is inexpensive and easy to install. The -10 is extremely sensitive
to fuel imbalance. 5 gallons difference will make a wing heavy. Install
a Vertical power system or use the TCW safety trim, they both do an excellent
job of managing your trim controls and controlling sensitivity verses aircraft
speed.

It's worth it, so install it. As far as safety trim, I have a Vertical Power 200,
so it's already in there.

never understood why VP dropped the -200, it does so much and had the
potential for so much more.. with that said, I have the same setup and can
tell you that I have used it more than expected. Last time was a couple of
pilots that for a while (full fuel) the trim helped keep the plane straight.
Worse case you have it and never need it, but get it for when you will.

I suspect that it had relatively poor sales, due to the huge price
difference from its other models, esp. the VPX.
I thought about it a lot, but did not want to have yet another panel
eating screen. I'd love to see them incorporate all of the VP-200
capabilities into the VPX, perhaps as an upscale option beyond the VPX Pro.

Bob88, something that may be worth considering if you're going with Garmin
G3X displays and their new auto pilot servos. The servos have incorporated
auto trim capabilities without needing the extra auto trim box that others
had to use with the Tru Trak servos. I'm not sure how useful roll auto
trim will be, but certainly pitch auto trim is well worth the cost IMHO.
By the way, anyone want a "smokin" deal on Tru Trak RV10 servos?
