Tony,
There are at least two PFA approved trim-tab installations in the UK - Mike
Parkin has a cut-out tab and is flying, I have a hinge-type tab behind the
aileron TE but am not flying yet.
They're not 'all of type', but they may help you get your own approval
through.
Regards,
Jeremy

Hi Cliff,
We are thinking long and hard about in flight adjustable trim
tab, due to the effect of pilot / passenger combinations, but PFA approval
will probably can that idea.
With regard to temps, with the engine on cold oil it feels much harsher and
oil pressure drops, so we are working hard to fix the issue, but I was
interested to see other angles of thought !
ATB
Tony.

> Your role trim is normal I think. I built a 2"x8" tab into the port
aileron. It is adjustable from the cockpit and is very useful. Pictures are
included at europaowners.org . Your low temperature would be normal for
my Rotax. I am not worried about it. Much better than to hot !
