badrace, I wonder if your are mixing up automatic rudder trim with automatic rudder actuation.
Trim is normally associated with control force, whereas actuation – rudder movement, provides a controlling function for the aircraft such as for engine failure compensation (thrust assymentry compensation) or autoland drift removal.
