Rotary Individual trim

Ive got a SKM working nicely on a 13B MSP

Question is...If I do an Indv trim per rotor is it advisable to trim both the leading and the trailing or just the leading Ign event since thats the Ign event that triggers initial combustion?

Thanks
M

I would apply the trim to both and keep the split constant. Also depending on how much split you have and how much trim you apply you could end up with the leading plug firing at the same time as the trailing (or even after!).

Im running about 6 deg split at the point where I want to do the trim.

The trim is not enough to go into negative split. But thanks...ill apply the trim to both leading and trailing.

Cheers
