When I first flew the Legacy demonstrator, I thought the trim a bit too fast
at the higher speeds. I, too, resolved to have a two-speed elevator trim.
I figured I would use a relay from either the gear or the flap switch. Well,
I just got so darned busy with dozens of other "mods" that I never got
around to this one.
I'm glad that I never got around to it. I agree with Barry. It's just a
non-issue. I have no need whatsoever for a two-speed trim motor. The
airplane works just fine with only one speed for the elevator trim motor.
I also fly overhead approaches which means the speed drops all the way from
200 KIAS to 100 KIAS over a short time period. I have no difficulty
whatsoever with keeping it trimmed. The same is true as I accelerate on
takeoff. Again, I have no trouble keeping it trimmed. I never get behind as
the motor speed is more than adequate.
I wouldn't bother with it. Spend your building time on something else.
