Hmm, well ok - i had the same problem once, and found a simple solution
I ended up with reversing the servo, with a soldering iron, not that hard (it was i HXT500 servo, small 5 g) IMPORTENT as i rember the was to steps in doing it: open servo house off course, there is a lillte print circuit bord (move it away), now you should see a Motor and a Potentiometer (Pot). BOTH the Motor and the Pot (needs to be reversed) MOTOR:, unsolder both wires keep the last one between fingers and re-solder it on the opposite side, solder the other wire to the other terminal. POT:, there is 3 wires concected, you need to swap to 2 outer most ones. LEAVE the wire in the center alone. Reasemble housing - and a REAL REVERSE SERVO is born. |

Most people just turn one servo around when using a Y cable. You can't get more simple than that!

You can buy 9g reverse servos from starmax they use it in the F5E jet also the F18. I have the same problem with my HK F18 the elivator set up is terrible. I am going to put a red reverse servo in and a straight push rod like on the other elevator. What I did is use the same pushrod but just sleved it with a carbon fibre hollow rod. It is now stronger than the original set up with no modification to the original pushrod. I will straighten the push rod on the other side and sleve thst to. No more unwanted flex.
