Someone correct me if I'm wrong here but I beleive the elevator and flaps will require the much more expensive reversing Y harness to operate correctly. If you have the 7th channel I would recomend NOT Y-ing the elevator so you can trim each elevator half seperately and get them perfect. Any roll tendancy from applying up elevator on this plane could be the death of it at slow speeds... Like landing[:@]
You don't even know WHICH P-51 he has or how the servos can or should be connected or even where they are mounted. A lot of assumptions here. I assembled a Seagull CAP the other day and the way the servos were laid out they required nothing more than a simple Y-cable. And both elev servos trim identically of course since Y'd.

Lots of WAG's in most of these replies since the details are unknown.

Oh yeah, NO Crow.
