Also more simple implementations are available.
Do you remember my rotation system Gill ?
I now have a pad eye on the end of my rotation arm and a cleat on the arm. Here I can fine tune the right upwind trim. With the maincleat I can engage or disengage the rotation to pre-determined settings.
Simpler, cheaper and just as effective.
Several other systems can be thought up. Phill has one for when the rotation arm is underneath the boom.

If you see me at Tiengemeente Gill, then ask me this question again. I'll run you through the options.
