Valin,
I looked at a product at Sun n
Fun that puts a two speed switch an air speed switch. Basically, it gives you
two speed trim activated by differences in air speed.
I’ll try to find the info for
you

Subject: [LML] Legacy Trim Tab Servo Speed Control
Hey
Legacy gang,
Could
I get recommendations on the best way to set up the Ray Allen trim tab servos
in the Legacy so that they have the right sensitivity throughout the range of
flight speeds? I know from 99L that at cruise speeds without a speed
control rheostat to slow the tabs down that they’re too sensitive – slightest
tap on the switch causes a “bump”.
Ttcwtech.com
has a $49 speed switch that they sell that can be used to set a speed where the
sensitivity changes – up to 145 kts. Is it good enough to have a speed
control rheostat cut in to slow the tabs down once the gear and flaps are
up? Or, has anyone found a rheostat that’s directly driven by the
airspeed so that the sensitivity is always in proportion to flight speed?
Other ideas?
Thanks,
Valin
