Speed Scheduling
When configured, the trim controller's adjustable speed scheduling capability may be set to
slow down the speed of your trim motors as you fly faster so that your trim sensitivity is the
same across your airspeed ranges. This behavior is configured during installation.
Trim Controller Safety Features
Controlling aircraft trim in your aircraft is serious. The SV-AP-PANEL's integrated trim controller
features the following safety features:
When the trim controller is connected to two sets of switches or stick controls, one of
them will always take priority over the other when the requested trim commands
disagree. This is normally the "pilot" position, but whether or not this is the left or right
seat or set of controls will vary by aircraft.
Although it is contained within the SV-AP-PANEL, the electronics in the trim controller
are powered by aircraft power and are independent from SkyView. Trim control will
remain available even if SkyView itself is unpowered or offline. In this failsafe condition,
the trim controller's speed scheduling is disabled and the trim motors will run at their
full speed when trim is commanded.
To protect from a "runaway" trim condition, the longest that a trim motor will run
continuously even when a trim button or switched is continually depressed is five
seconds. After three seconds, the trim motor will cease responding until the trim button
is released and pressed again.
