Jerry,

You can do the duel channel mix with the 8103 just fine, I set one up for a guy not to long ago.It seems I used the elevator and spoiler channels. I have the full procedure for doing it somewhere around here.  I can find it and send it to you.

  I'll be using either a JR PCM 10 (old) or a JR 8103. When the stick is moved quickly on the 10, one servo lags. I havn't tried the 8103 and am not sure if it will work with dual elevator servos.

    Your best bet is using separate channels with a mix.  With a Y setup, you will deprive yourself of the fine tuning capability you will need to make the travels correct, unless you get lucky with a perfectly matched set of servos out of the box.  A Matchbox will work fine, but you're adding weight, cost and an extra point of failure, however unlikely it is that one will fail.  If you use a mix, not only can you duplicate the Matchbox capability, you can exceed it if you have a multi-point mix capability on your radio.  A Matchbox is good for center and end points and that's it.

      I want to use dual elevator servos. Will a Y harness with a matchbox work or do I have to use two channels? The servos have to be about 1.2" in length. What is the best JR or Hitech servo to use?

      TIA
