well is there an indication on how long does it takes to come out of full trim manually? because if it's 30 seconds of cranking the aircraft might very well be descending too fast or too fast in general by the time control is regained.
- js2 8y agoIt’s a lot of cranking to do by hand[1]. You could use the electric trim to reset back to zero and then disable electric trim. (But, that isn’t the procedure.) 1. https://youtu.be/xixM_cwSLcQ https://youtu.be/xixM_cwSLcQ
- cjbprime 8y agoIt looks like the motor takes 30 seconds to move the jackscrew from one end to the other. Cranking presumably takes much longer. It doesn't seem hard to imagine the ground intervening before you finish cranking back to trimmed level flight. And that's assuming there's no issue with the aerodynamic load preventing the stabilizer from being retrimmed until you unload the elevator (by pushing the yoke forward), as is being theorized to be the case.
