Default Dual aileron servos?

Hi All,

I would like to know how the dual aileron servos are connected to the receiver? I have included an example wing below.

Thanks

You can either use a "Y" cord, or some radios will allow you to plug one servo into Ch-1 and the other into Ch-6.

Just wait until the day that you are programming two or three digitals per wing half.

I'm new to the sport. I suspect using duel servos is common on the bigger models? The reason being one is not strong enough to pull all that control surface?...........

What plane are you flying ? There are advantages in having separate channels for the two servos, instead of using a y. It also depends on your radio capability

Hi Rajul,

I'm not flying any plane yet but I was looking at the Super Air listed on the webpage above. Further, I don't even have a new radio yet as am still looking at these and last flew 20 years ago...

Cheers
