Regards, Andre I am installing another heat muff on the rv6 on the pilot side. I only had on the passenger side before and I was freezing I installed my servo under the floor near the footwell on the right side. I acutally started off with the Navaid which I hated .... I should have paid no more than $10 for it ... when I switched to the EZ it was just plug and play ... EZ could use the Navaid servo ... Good luck on your choice !!!

So I've been reading and asking questions of both. Other than feature vs feature. Tru Trak told me that Trio uses the RC model servo that is a lot lighter than the what Tru Trak uses but they admit the RC model servo is the same one Navaid has used for years. I've talked to several guys that have one or the other and everybody is happy with them. The tru Trak is a hundred or so cheaper than the Trio I think and the Tru Trak fits in a 2 1/4 hole if you want it to. But the Trio looks like it is more complex to the pax.....smile From what I've seen, I'll be installing my servo under the seat. Good Luck and let us know what you decide.
