<<From the cockpit standpoint, I have a switch on the trim servo panel tha=
t transfers the ground from PILOT to COPILOT. This isolates the trim contr=
ol on the sticks from each other.>>

Well done, Giff!  I have the same feature, except I wired all five wires=
 to a three-wafer switch.  A real pain to solder and install.  If I had en=
gaged my brain (as you did) I would have realized that switching only the=
 ground would have been sufficient.  Oh well, it's done.  Sometimes I'm a=
 genius but more often I'm a doofus.

The switch is labeled "TRIM CNTL" and you can select "PLT" or "PAX".  I fi=
gured that with a push-to-talk on the stick, I didn't want the passenger=
 pushing the trim by mistake.  I also figured that it was a real positive=
 way to say "I've got it" or "you've got it" when flying with another pilo=
t.
