    new electric trim

    here's a couple photos of my new electric trim system on my RAF, the actuators are fully extended in the pic and I was able to use the original springs from the old manual trim and use existing holes on the upper engine mount to install the actuators.

I plan to disassemble it and re-assemble it on a new (dropped) keel so that I can comply with the 51% rule. already on Rick's list for a suspension...
