I'm thinking about getting a brushless motor system, but am not sure how to get the tail esc to mix with the main esc.
I have a simple futaba 4 ch remote with no mix capabilities at all.

I wonder if i can get a y adapter and use my old feda mixer to control the tail motor, and have the other end of the y connector to the brushless esc?

Else, is there a on board mixer that I can(have to) get?

Any light on this would be good.
Thanks.

A Y-adapter and an all-in-one board is a workable solution.
Another solution is to use a head hold gyro and seperate tail ESC.

If I'm hearing your another solution corectly,

the HH gyro will control the tail esc as if I had a "smart" mixer?

So really there is no electrical interaction of the throttle signal with the rudder signal?

That is correct. Like the TV commercial says, just set it and forget it. I am using a non-HH gyro now, with revo mixing on the transmitter. I prefer the HH gyros that I have used for hovering stability. The tail just stays where you put it. With my PG03, I have to manage the tail as I fly. I keep telling myself that this is making me a better pilot. It almost works. :-\
