| Subject: | Re: RV8a Electric Aileron Trim |
Dear Fellow RV-8a Builders, I have the spring type trim setup, but have not installed
it yet. Good friend told me that most folks use the manual spring trim
if they are installing an auto pilot system and or use the electric trim system
if not. I do not plan to install an auto pilot so is the electric system really
recommended ? I have electric aileron trim on my present plane and I like
how?manageable and easy it is. Who has the electric trim without auto pilot in
their 8 and how does it compare to spring system ? Advantages/disadvantages?
Hope to hear from someone and best regards, Bill of Georgia

Yes, I had to enlarge both sides. Used a Dremel. I did it when I was trial
fitting the ailerons, before the wings went on. Watch the movement from the
bellcrank to where it connects with the aileron.

Has anyone had to enlarge the holes in the
fuselage where the aileron push tubes pass through?
I want to put in boots,but need to know if I might have to
enlarge the holes when wings are mounted.

I have electric aileron and elevator trim on my RV-8. I did something
different and mounted the elevator trim switch on the throttle. It has
worked out quite well and is in a handy place.
I would really suggest you install a autopilot while you are building.
It is much easier now than later. I thought that altitude hold was not
necessary until the first cross country. That is when I learned how
pitch sensitive the RV is while fighting with maps. I'm now in the
middle of adding altitude hold. Talk about one step forward and six
backwards.

I have electric trim and am very happy with it. Flew the first couple of
years without autopilot but now have that also ... still love the electric trim
when not flying on autopilot.

Dear Fellow RV-8a Builders, I have the spring type trim setup, but have not
installed it yet. Good friend told me that most folks use the manual spring
trim if they are installing an auto pilot system and or use the electric trim
system if not. I do not plan to install an auto pilot so is the electric
system really recommended ? I have electric aileron trim on my present plane and
I like how manageable and easy it is. Who has the electric trim without auto
pilot in their 8 and how does it compare to spring system ?
Advantages/disadvantages? Hope to hear from someone and best regards, Bill of
Georgia

There is plenty of room. Should be no need to enlarge.

Yes, I had to enlarge both sides. Used a Dremel. I did it when I was trial
fitting the ailerons, before the wings went on. Watch the movement from the
bellcrank to where it connects with the aileron.
