This is the actuator used in the front. Splash resistant (IP54).

The only electric trim tab I got is for the elevator - nothing else. The actuators I got (3 of them) are for retracting the wheels in my amphibious floats. There is 1 more actuator and it is for the flaps. The picture here is for the front wheel retract. The trim tab on the elevator is always a PLUS. When properly setup it enables you to fly hands off or without having to always keep pressure on the stick.
