The servo signal is transmitter generally in a form where  
the pulses for each individual servo are sent through the radio 
waves as one signal that contains every pulse after each other  
(and some sync information to know when first servo signal starts). 

So I quess that in this kind of system a simple receiver would 
send the received pulses as they arrive (each connected to 
their own output, in oder they arrive). So it is most propably that
those pulses start at different times (each on their own timeslot).
