I'd sure put it in. Hardly weighs anything. I admit that once trimmed
for straight and level I rarely touch it as control forces are so light
no matter what.
On my kitfox the 'trim' is by adjusting the flapperons, using a
different system. On that plane I rarely touch the trim either as
trimmed straight and level I never notice stick forces no matter what I
do.

Wouldn't be without it, not much weight to it and you are going to
need as much weight in the tail that you can get.

Folks,
My rudder is done and I=99m tooling up for the rest of the
tail feathers. While I=99m trying to go as light as possible
I=99m thinking the trim option is good idea. I=99d
appreciate feedback from those flying with and without the trim.
Especially those of you with heavier engines.
Thanks in advance

Bob: Put it in now. I did not install the electric trim tab until after
I built and flew my plane. It would have been so much easier installing
it while I was building instead of retrofitting later.
Yes you will want one. It works great and once trimmed for cruise you
hardly need to touch the controls.
