Default How to make dual ailerons go into one aileron slot on the receiver?

I am fairly new to building r/c planes, although i have flown them before. I am thinking of buying a plane (Potensky Eagle from www.hobby-lobby.com) and I see that it has dual aileron servos. The receiver they tell you to buy with this has 2 spots for 2 aileron servos. However, I already have a radio and receiver, and the receiver has only one slot for the aileron servo. Is there some sort of connector thinig or something I can buy to connect the two aileron servos into one, so it plugs into my receiver. Thanks.

Joe,
You can also use a second channel for the other aileron servo, if you transmitter is capable. This is a capabilty that is in most computer radios. What kind of transmitter do you have?
