Elevator trim

What is the knob on the lower right you keep turning??

Mike ... that is his manual elevator trim. I am installing the same on my RV8 project. Personally it has more "feel" than an electric trim.

BTW - it is on the lower left

Nope, something different.

Lower right side of the panel, just below the placard or some other kind of typewritten stuff.

Mike,
That's the EGT/CHT selector. He has a single indicator gauge that you have to select to the cylinder you want to view.

I like the manual trim too - better feel as stated.
