Some kind of spring linkage might work if they do not seem to follow each other close enough for your application.

Thanks for the info. We did order three of them to improve our chances that we could get two to act as mirror images of each other. Our previous experience is with Lego motors, and those frequently have different startup time lag and we try to find two of them that share the same lag. Of course, those are plastic gears so I expected the Karbonite ones to be better.
We are thinking that "servo2 = 255 - servo1" given that both of them start at the same (mirrored) position, and that we'd have to always make sure they are initialized properly or we will run into issues where they are fighting each other.
