Jeff,

I have the Ray Allen trim system and have installed the Ray Allen speed controller. My elevator trim motor now runs at close to half it's original speed and I find that very good.

I have also used the VPX-Pro electronic circuit breaker system (love it) but if you use the speed control system for the elevator trim, it is a function of the flap position and you then loose the protection from what I consider are very good limit stop micros on the flap motor. The VPX will control the up and down stop limit position for the flaps but not as accurately as the switches provided in the flap motor. (My opinion)

I agree with Steve Cowell's comments and agree that rudder trim is not needed. I installed a rudder trim but don't use it.

Enjoy.

Okay so I am not flying yet so I ask the folks that are flying their Legacies

If you have the ray Allen trim systems do you find that you need to have a dual mode speed on the trim motors ?
Aka Slower speed at higher airspeeds with a faster trim motor speed flying at lower pattern speeds ?

I am trying to decide if I want to just install now instead of later ...


Thanks in advance
Jeff.
