I know this topic has been probably discussed so much ... that it makes your
teeth hurt ... BUT I NEED MORE INPUT!
 
I installed a really cool roll trim.  It is basically Alex Strong's servo
connection to the aileron bell crank.  It gives a constant spring tension
and snaps back when pushed or pulled against it.
 
However, I am wondering something.  And I can't answer it because I only
have 6 hours on my plane.
 
HOW IMPORTANT IS ROLL TRIM ON THE VELOCITY.
 
No theories please.  I really want to hear from guys who are flying.  Do you
use it?  Really?  Would you miss it?
 
It seems to be a pain in the a$$ to have constant tension (even light
tension) on the stick.  Has anyone one away with it?
 
Thanks,
 
Tom Martino
