Hi, I have been hovering my Belt cp (RTF all stock) for about 2 weeks now. I can hover tail in and sides in but recently it seems that the elevator servo is acting up badly. The first incident was a full uncommanded deflection nose down, managed to land as I was only about 2 feet up. I changed out the servo with another esky 7g digital I had and I decided to test it without the motor connected. with abrupt collective and cyclic inputs after a few full throw inputs it went to full forward elevator and stayed there. recently I had a mishap (crash) where the heli went hard aft, when examining the swash right after the said mishap it appears that it was tilted hard to the back. Now the servo does not respond at all, after 3 servos on this channel I am wondering if it might be the tx or the rx ... or just bad luck. Any thoughts would be welcome.
Thanks Adam

Check the sticky on Glitchy Transmitter and do that see if it helps.

Thanks for the speedy reply, I reviewed the thread and am going to try your advice but will a glitch cause a full scale deflection of the controls, anyhow I am now waiting on parts so I can't test things out.
