Vernier Pitch Trim

I completed the vernier pitch trim yesterday. Seems like this is going to work as planned. Big movements made by pressing the center button and pulling the knob takes more pull than anticipated but that is with no help of pulling back on the stick. I'm sure it is also from the tight routing I had to take. I used the 48" cable but should have used the 60" cable. But this works with some adjustment still available in the clevis end and the bulkhead fitting on the cable end. With the trim adjusted to the middle, the stick just hovers in mid-position. This is much better than getting slapped in the head by it as it flopped around getting things hooked up.

The seat cutouts worked great as built to plans dimensions. That was good to see.
