I have been toying with an idea of trimming (mainly thinking of the stab here).
I thought to run the cables through a pully set up like this, with a sliding set between, running along a screw from a (How ghetto is this?) reversable drill motor, controlled by a hat switch, using each respective axis for pitch and yaw.
Figured the drill motor idea worked for pylon 500 with his flaps, why not for my trims?:D
