I just wanted to post this so anyone that happens to run across this issue does not think something is wrong with their RX or servo(s). On the 9303 2.4, while in the AUTO section of the DR/EXPO section, when you move around in this menu assigning POSition to each flight mode, one of your servos may twitch back and forth. It is quite a bit of movement and there seems to me no paticular combination that will make it happen. I thought maybe it was my TX but I tried it on my friends 9303 and within the first 5 seconds of being in that menu, one of his servos did the same exact thing.

I contacted JR and they said its a pulse being sent to the servo and the movement is from the change in settings from each POS. That is not the case because the stick is at 50 in/out so there is no change. I explained that its just one servo and its not just moving its jumping back and forth but as you can expect they just brushed it off.

Not a big issue as long as you never access this menu on a running heli. I have gone through the other menus and cannot get this to happen on any others but I would be hesitant to make any menu adjustments on a running heli, for example one landed and spooled up to adjust gain.

The equipment being used is the 9303, AR7000 and Futaba 9650 but I doubt it has anything to do with the combination.

Interesting, I'll have to try it :) thanks for sharing... could be a problem with a heli running, sitting on the ground.

Note to self:
Don't play around with changing stuff in the menu's while the heli is in the air. :)

..... or on the ground running. It may do it in other parts of the settings and the servo moves enough to possibly cause a tip over.

My post was mainly so anyone that runs across this during setup does not think they have a bad servo or some other interference.
