I recently bought a goldberg sukhoi with 2 elevator servos mounted on the outside of each side of the fuse. Instead of looking at it in the other room Id figure Id post. Do I just need a standard Y harness to hook it up or a reversing Y? I dont feel like thinking right now... [sm=red_smile.gif]

Thanks,

You will need to use a reversing Y-harness. Or if you have a computer radio that can handle dual elevator servos you can use that as well.

Thanks for the reply. Any real advantage to using 2 channels for the elevators? I do have a JR X9303

If you have the X9303 then I would use the radio to do it. Reversing Y-harnesses have a habit of the centers drifting on the servos. The advantage of using the radio is that you can adjust each servo to trim them in using only the radio. Trust me, you'll be much better off using the radio over the Y-harness. Plus, it will save you the money of not having to buy the Y-harness.

Thanks again. One more question Know the difference between JR sport extensions and the "gold" or whatever extensions?

For most applications, the standard extensions will be fine

====OR====

If the stabilizer position permits when using an ordinary Y chord you can just terminate the pushrod on one side toward the bottom of the servo and on the otherside toward the top of the servo. Nothing additional needed.

Although I only have one airplane with dual elevator servos they are hooked up via a reversing Y harness and I have not had any drifting at all.

I've never had one that didn't drift. I hate them, and have removed and thrown all of them in the trash. I use only my radio for mixing now....

Yes, many. The first that comes up to my mind is that you will be saving some bucks because you will not need any Y harness.

John, I've seen a couple different ARF's at the field lately with that configuration. Looks awful, but the geometry is OK.

Thanks guys. I think Ill just get a couple extensions and let the radio do the work. And while im at it probably do the same with the airlerons.
