is this what you are looking for.
Adjustable trim tabs using the 4th channel

the same idea as the trim tabs apply for the drive. add a lever in and then control it with a servo.
you could use a drive like this and instead of having the adjusment mount to the drive you would take out the tube it is mounted to and then place in a lever and mount it to that and then mount the servo rod to the other end.

The pic with the drawing is what i am looking for. I thought i found a drive allready set up that way but it may have been made just the way you show. I like the idea because it might help performance to trim out on the fly just like a real boat... Do you or anyone think the servo can handle the forces will be small amount of movment.

Thanks for the ideas and the links. I just couldn't find it.

That is quite the price in us dollars. 195.30 for just the drive not with the shipping. But I guess that it ok when an MHZ drive is 250-500. You might just find out what shipping would be and order it from the site.
