when executing a turn on a standard aircraft, will I need to use rudder with the ailerons? or is it ok to just use ailerons.

Should I use a Y-harness?

Please answer this quesion regarding both single and twin-engine models..

Thanks for any help.
For a more detailed answer, a specific plane (and kit manufacturer ) would be needed since various manufacturers wil make the same plane in different ways, and different planes fly differently.
