Greetings,

I would appreciate some feedback from any of you with cockpit experience 
using electric elevator trim.
Specifically, in my LNC2 I have a MAC servo in the elevator and am 
planning to use their control stick grips. So, is it better to have the 
trim switches or buttons on the grip itself, or within easy reach of the 
right hand on the center consol?
My thinking is that my left hand would get a better feel through the 
control stick of what the trim is doing if the same hand is not trying 
to manipulate the trim buttons at the same time.

Does it matter?

In reality, I will probably wind up with trim control on the stick as 
well as the center consol. That way, the co-pilot won't be groping in my 
crotch area for trim. :-)
