RE: How many servos
if it's electric powered then as many as the bec in the esc can handle.if it's glow then as many as the battery pack can safely handle.

RE: How many servos
Carel,
I've never put more than two servos into one channel using a "Y" harness or a reversing "Y" harness for elevators. I have seen where people plug "Y" harnesses together to attach more servos, but you have to remember that the servos will not have individual EPA or Subtrims. It also depends on the plane you are flying. Futaba and JR both make devices that allows you to connect more than two servos into one channel and still have searate EPA's and Subtrims.
