12-20 servos sounds like your project is out of control, but that's your deal. this is what I'm using, with a 600MHz verdex. I connect it to /dev/ttyS1 http://www.pololu.com/products/pololu/0207/ you can slave several of them together. They also sell these: http://www.pololu.com/products/pololu/0240/ but it's larger. Of course, if you have an airframe that needs/has 20 servos, I'm thinking weight and size of the board are less of an issue.
