Anyways, i get how you can set like 1/2 up and just 1/4 down on a computerradio and when the ailerons are operated by two seperate servos, but how do you (if you can) do this on a single-servo aileron wing?
In the end of the manual for the PT-40 there's instructions on how to setup the single aileron servo with differential. Using a wheel horn on the servo, just mount each aileron pushrod 30 degrees up from the center line. Have a look in the back of your book where they do the servo mounting, it's pretty clear there.
Is aileron differential beneficial on most/all aircraft? It sounds like it from a previous (bojangle's) post. I have a WM trainer and am curious if it would make a noticable difference. It has a single servo in the bottom of the wing that is attached to torque rods on the strip ailerons.

Thanks,
