Here's an interesting web site. A self contained hydraulic cylinder w/ the pump and electric motor built into the housing.

For what application on an ultralight? Pitch trim?
You'd also be committing to at least a minimal electrical system, which is more weight than many Part 103 builders can afford.
This thing looks like it has enough power to trim a 747!

How about seat height adjuster to compensate for moving Cof G with fuel burn, or gear retraction ?
Only Joking. :eek:
Don't forget Dav is a helicopter builder so may not be thinking of Gyros.
