I'm looking for a recommendation on a relay for the elevator trim. I'm installing a Ray Allen G205 grip. Thank you. David

What relay? I wired the switch directly to the servo and power. I am using the Ray Allen trim servos and controls, not the servos used on later model Kitfox.

As I understand it the jack screw KF 7SS, may draw more amps than the ray allen switches in the grip can handle. (5 amps on the G205). This is for a 2008 KF7SS. Thanks

I did it and it is not that difficult. You will need 2 single pole double throw relays that will handle the current of the motor. I set mine up using the Ray Allen grips and it works fine. I did not like the switch on the console.
Search for "motor reverse with relays" and you will find the info you need.
