The TCW Trim Controller<\/a> works like a champ.\u00a0 When I first tested it, I thought there was a problem since it would only run for about three seconds and then stop.\u00a0 But then I remembered that there is a “trim runaway” protection feature which prevents a stuck switch from resulting in the trim being run all the way.\u00a0 So you just have to re-activate the switch if you ever need more trim.\u00a0 There’s also a reverse trim function that also works perfectly.<\/p>\n

There is also a high and low speed trim function so that when you’re flying slow (like in the pattern) the trim motor runs at a higher speed than it does when you’re flying fast.\u00a0 I haven’t tested that function yet.<\/p>\n

I also powered up the landing lights.<\/p>\n
