Is there a servo splitter cable?
Ok I want to get a mini funtana and use my old gear. Ill need ane xtra servo though, to make 4 total. My receiver only has 4 channels though, and one would be for throttle. That would mean the 3 remaining channels wont be enough for elevator, rudder, and each aileron.
Is this any type of cable or device I can use to avoid buying a new receiver?? Thanks...

Yes, you can get splitters. They also sell splitters that will reverse one of the ending channels, so you can use one cable for a dual aileron setup. (one goes one way, the other goes the other way).

Just use a Y Cable. You can buy them with reversers built in but you don't need one. Just be aware of which way each servo turns when they are in the wing and put the aileron pushrod on the correct side for each. The built in reverser type is usually used on separate elevator servos where you usually get no choice as to where the pushrod goes.
