Correction to the above post: the hstab is either electrically or hydraulically actuated. using the electric switch engages the alternate hstab control electric motor powered by the 28v DC Essential Bus.

The current system when using the control bindings for trim up and trim down only use the alternate control. The primary hydraulic control of actuating the trim wheel or using the trim axis -100 to 100 does not move the HSTAB
