Trim stuck in landing position. More facts to follow tomorrow!
It wasn't the relays, and it would have jammed even if I had the TCW system! Paint jammed the actuator rods on the tab and stopped it cold. Then it striped the plastic gears in the gearbox, so it wasn't going to move regardless of what I did. We replaced the servo, scraped the paint off the rods, and all is well. Had I known, I could have used the aileron trim servo, to get home.
