Default Regular servo on retract channel?

I have a Futaba T6XAS 6 channel radio where channel five is the retract switch. I plan to use flaperons on this plane in additon to retract installation. I'm using the pneumatic Robart system. The throw on the air valve is only a 1/4". A retract servo is heavy, I have plenty of regular servos and with 180 degrees of travel on a retract servo this will make it difficult to get just a 1/4" of travel.

Can I use a regular servo on channel five?
