The minimum trim speed should not be lower than 45 mph at solo loading and the pitch control should feel very
stable and damped at this setting.
It is not desirable to trim slower than 55mph (88km/h) when on approach or when climbing from takeoff as the roll
control becomes more delayed and the chances of getting gust stalled are greater.
If the minimum trim speed rises above 65mph, solo, with the electric trimmer, then the bungee or trim cord may
need replacing. See maintenance section.
On no account should the washout rod settings be dropped in an effort to increase trim speed, as dangerous
pitch instability may result.
Combinations of pitch and roll tuning:
The above adjustments for pitch and roll may be superimposed, up to the adjustment limits specified.
