OK thank you for the information and I agree trim tabs are pretty handy I
learned that flying a Cessna 182 I just wasn’t sure on the KR 2 this is going

I left out the main problem with flying without a trim tabit's
downright dangerous. Let go of the stick and the plane may climb or
dive (think stall or head to the ground) under extreme conditions. You
have to fly the plane the whole time. It's very tiring, and not
something you'll want

I might as well send my link, for the "excruciating detail" version of
the MAC (Ray Allen) trim setup also. See

Wow, thank you very much for the quick replies;
While I have not looked at the problem or system in detail (will get to it
Friday or Saturday work permitting), I can say from the few times I have looked
at it, the trim tab is connected to a cable (nothing special, just a normal

I used the Nyrod system from cockpit to the elevator trim tab on my KR-2.
This system is a type of plastic Bowden cable. Both ends of the sheath must

Hey guys; this weekend if the weather cooperates I am going to try to correct
an issue that I’ve had for quite some time now.
It seems that my elevator trim is not doing its job properly. Whenever I am
flying by myself, the plane will nose over slightly when I release the stick,
