Default 2 servos for airlerons ?

I am building my first plane over 68" that requires 2 servos (1 for each airleron )-do I need to re-wire one of them to get them to operate the correct maner . They are standard futaba servos. Same question on flaps -I assume no re-wire needed since they function in the same for both sides.

One more question please - torque- can mini servoe be used on flaps - how much torque is needed to hold and flap down in the 45degree deflection for a 9 pound model?

Thanks for any and all help

You dont need to rewire them all you have to do is reverse one of them for the ailerons.

No, make sure that both rods are either on the outboard or inboard side of the servo.
That is all you need.
