Matt,

I don't know how it works on the Fut 9CAP, but on the JR 10X it works fairly 
well and it is easy set-up. The servos should be as closely matched as 
possible, and the pushrod/clevis rigging will need to be trimmed properly and 
double checked for accurate throw, but we do that anyway regardless.

I also have an older JR PCM 10 system which does display the problem you 
suggest: the slave lags the master considerably.

This isn't a direct answer to your question but my point is that some systems 
are capable and others are not.

Matt
