RE: Multi servo control surfaces

Hi Devin136,

Most large scale gas planes with multiple servos per surface would use a matchbox or synchronizer such as our FUTM4155, which makes matching end point and travel very simple and precise. This extra weight and connection would not be necessary if using a 12Z or 14MZ as you would be able to make these adjustments in the programming.

I hope you find this information helpful. You can also reach our Futaba support team at 217-398-8970 opt 2, or via fax at 217-398-7721.

Sincerely,

I have my first large scale gas aerobatic plane, this is cause for some questions regarding control surface set up. It calls for two servos on each surface, 2 ail, 2 elev, and 2 rudder. What are my options for making sure the servos are matched and so on. I want it set up correctly.
