Default V-tail programming problem

I have a Lanier Predator that uses a V-tail configuration. I am using my Futaba 8U tx. I setup the mix using radio defaults. It works fine this way but it was suggested that my flying could be improved by reducing the amount of down elevator. I went in to the ele-atv settings and reduced the down travel to 50%. The problem is, only the servo plugged in to the elevator channel is affected the other servo controlling the other elevator still has full down travel. I couldn't find any "link" functions that would tie the two together. I guess I could program the reduced throw via dual rates but I would have thought the ele-atv would affect both since they are essentially linked. Am I missing something or is this just a function of how it has to work through the programming. I am going to set up the reduced down via D/R for now but I would like to know if there is another way.
