Default mini-Vbar issues?

I had a crash last weekend. My Vbar is acting a little weird. When I plug it into the C port I get 5 weak beeps. The servos respond to the radio but drift! When I use the B port everything seems to work fine!

I measured the voltage going into the VBar at 5.8 volts and the voltage at the tail servo port at 5.4V

I must admit I'm a little nervous about flying this helicopter.

Has this ever happened to anybody else? I'm wondering is it could be an ESC issue.

I don't think the VBar itself can beep. That's likely the ESC making the motor beep.

What do you mean by "when I plug it into C"? Plug what into C? Sorry if I'm just being dense

The Vbar doesn't beep. The motor does. It's just that the beeps are weaker when I plug into the Vbar C port. The mini Vbar has 3 RX ports A, B, and C. You can use either B or C to power the Vbar and electronics.
