Can you send me the drawings of yours? I would also like to see how that is accomplished, Thanks

Thanks, still have to do some adjustments but works good. The video was my daughter and I doing a run spreading my dad's ashes. Tab adjustments were pretty decent keeping both of us level.Congrats it looks great to me

Ok you have my attention. This looks light and elegant. I was starting to assemble an electric trim but I like this. Do you have photos of the rest? ThxI used a 90 degree drill adapter to turn a screw that moves the front of the horizontal stabilizer. A small crank at the pilot seat also indicates position. After flight, the labels will indicate takeoff and cruise positions.
Thank you for the response! I love the idea here. It is definitely lighter than what I had in mind. The electronic trim is a bit tail heavy as the actuator is in the back but doable I think with out removing fabric. But this gives me ideas that a mechanical maybe still a possibility as well. Thanks!More on my horizontal stabilizer trim.... There are a number of 90 degree and 110 degree drive adapters on the market. You may find one that is more appropriate for your installation. I'll attach an exploded view of my mechanism, and a shot of what you'll find inside a typical 90 degree drive adapter. I bought several to check them out, and decided on the DeWalt for my project. (This shot is not the DeWalt design. but typical)
And brilliant using the 90’. I’ve used them for work and have pounded on them for years with only occasionally breaking one under unreasonable loads far excessive for what we would be using.Thank you for the response!

My S2 came with that. The tab was say 3" x 12". i did it (stab trim)and its flying.I went with the kiss theory. Less weight and less to go wrong. One lever cable and hinge. Done
My beads are 4.5mm. The size is not as important as the ultimate strength. I believe mine had a 60 pound breaking strength. I am confident that I can not break the cord using my thumb and forefinger.what size beaded cable and where do you get pullys
