Sokol1 I know (post #4352621) is quite old but after using my button box for some time for the pots for trimming aircraft I certainly now understand your comment. A multi turn would improve trim so much by reducing sensitivity!

The multi turn pots are a bit expensive but I will go that way way if necessary. Just wondering if any other possible method/s to adjust axis. My thought is that TLE5010 would not improve the trimming sensitivity over a pot?

I know this may be a silly question but could a trim axis be controlled by an encoder. In my mind the answer is no (I have no technical knowledge for that deduction) but I thought I might just check with the more knowledgeable people.
