Chad, When I first flew my Kr-2 (standard original plans built with retracts) I had my elevator trim tab locked in position ( not movable).
I installed an elevator trim system that applied pressure on the elevator cables using a spring on each cable and a adjusting cable to a geared window crank mounted by the throttle/carb heat/mixture controls on the left side of the cock pit. I flew this set up for several years with good results. I recently decided to change it to be able to use the actual trim tab so I would have redundancy in case of elevator control failure. I went to the setup suggested in the plans and that system works well. I am thinking about installing an electronic servo system and removing the cable system that physically attaches to the trim. I also have a similar spring system to do rudder trim. Hope this info is useful. Stay safe and have fun.
