Ian=0AI agree with you. The Navaid servo adopted by Trio has nylon gears, 
-soldered cable joints sheet aluminium chassis-=0Aand looks very "steam
 age" to me. It first came on the market about 25 years ago.=0AGraham=0A=0A

=0AWhy do you say the Trio servo looks better?=0A-=0AThe Trio servo is of
 the old analogue design while the TruTrak is a digital stepper motor with 
far less to go wrong, wear out or fail.- The fact that Garmin, Dynon and 
others have decided to use the same unit (although they are not electricall
y interchangeable) say a lot.=0A-=0A-=0AIan Rickard G-IANI XS Trigear,
