Brief Description:  Electric Trim.

KSC gave me a hand to retrieve the Horizontal Stab. and Elevator from the storage shed.
I wanted to ensure the trim was configured correctly through V-PX.
The Sling4 POH states the " Control Surface Travel Limits " for the trim Tab is 5 degrees UP and 25 degrees DOWN.
The Sling4 " Finishing Kit " says 8 degrees of up deflection of the trim tab from the elevator.
I have set the trim tab to 8 degrees Up deflection, which gives me 25 degrees Down deflection.
I have configured the V-PX to display the limits and a trim neutral position.
The neutral position ( i.e which will be the Takeoff trim position ) is easily changed once test flying starts and the best position for trim on Takeoff is established.
