Default Do I need to reprogram my 5645

I was doing my preflight control checks on my PW Extra 300 and noticed the Rudder was sluggish the plane is setup with two Hitec 5645 servos in the tail. Took the plane back to the pitts and disconnected the pushrods and found the Lt servo dead. I swapped it out with another NIB 5645 and now have problems with the servos moving together in tandem.

Tx is a Futaba 8 (not the super) using an 8ch PCM Rx. The Rt servo is in ch 4 with the Lt slaved to ch 8. I have 100% mix both ways with the Link and Trim "on". The servo center seems to be off with more counterclockwise throw than clockwise. This keeps the servo from going to high rate and despite playing with the ATV for both ch 4 and 8 they are still out of sync.[:@]

This plane setup great with no problem and has about 30 flights on her. Am I missing something and as usual any ideas appreciated
