The trim speed is very fast such that a bump of the = switch sets up a big pitch change. I measure the full up to full down = travel time which is adjustable on the module from 5-8 seconds = only--very fast. My certified aircraft run 30-40 seconds. I wrote = Trutrak and they said the unit has to come back because it says 24v but = may be wired for only 12v. I measured the voltage to the unit and it = is fed 28v. If you have one and have similar trim speeds you might want = to think about a fix because there is nothing in the wiring diagrams = that would suggest an error in installation. The diagram inputs show = 12-24v to the unit. I'd be interested in travel times for other Legacy = trims for comparison. Paul L2K-186 =20=
