I am building a Zodiac CH 601 XL, have purchased DEK 180
along with one servo for roll control and an AP74, am patiently waiting for 32C for pitch control. When it comes will I have to replace the control cable for the elevator, is there a special cable for the capstan servo.

When installing a capstan drive system, you do not replace the control cable in the aircraft. A second "bridle" cable that goes to the servo is basically clamped onto the stock aircraft cable at two points.
