reversing a single servo using a Y conn.
I am setting up a Ultra Stick 40 with a quad flap config on a Futaba 6EXA radio,I want to connect the Ailerons to ch 1,and flaps toCh 6,but to do this I need to reverse one aileron servo using a y adapter,i don't think this can be done with the radio it will reverse both servos,how do you reverse just one servo.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

RE: reversing a single servo using a Y conn.
You don't need to reverse the servo for normal aileron operation. Simply mount BOTH pushrods to the inboard (or outboard) side of the servo. This will accomplish the reversing mechanically.
For the flaps, mount both to the same side (either right or left).
To be able to run crow or flaperons, you need to have mixing capabilities in the radio.
The need for reversing comes in when you want to run dual elevator servos mounted on the side of the fuselage where you want both pushrods to come off of the "top" of the servos, which will natuarally reverse one.
