CX Power glitches

[Jaybird]

My new CX (older yellow body version) has a persistent electrical "twitch" that happens randomly on the ground at power up and while flying. It sounds like the power is being interupted for a split second while flying and on the ground the rotors will suddenly lurch and stop. I have checked all the connections at the 4-in-1 and I have run each motor independently with same results...I've even checked the transmitter and reciever antennas for contact. Any suggestions would be helpful.

I also find the transmitter uses up standard AA batteries pretty quick. I do get desent flight times from the on-board Li-Po pack.

Thanks,

Jaybird

I get the same thing... not sure what it is, but it adds a little spice to the flight :arggg: We're not the only ones experiencing this either... I get it more with the canopy on that off, so I am wondering if it is a temp issue...

try spraying some electrical contact cleaner into the pots on the stick gimbals on the transmitter. You have to take the back off, but its easy to do. This won't necessarily fix the problem, but its worth a try.
