"Yes, you can "Y" harness the battery. Plug the single end into any receiver slot,

I have heard conflicting stories on this. Would the servo not be directly powered by the battery then and always stay on as long as the battery was connected?

The U can do does not have a single piece elevator but 2 seperate elevators controlled with 2 different servos... You said that I will need to reverse the servo hornson of the elevators servos to get it to work in the proper direction, right?
