very strange problem

When I plug in the glow plug starter, my servos start jumping around. And when I kick over my starting wand, the servos start jumping around all over the place. I checked wires and everything else. any suggestions? Thanks, Tim

Cool Re: very strange problem

If the RX or antenna is close to the motor you may be generating enough magnetic field to cause interference.

Re: very strange problem

Ive notived something similar to this myself. It could be due to your TX being too close to the RX with the antenna up (even a bit), and getting swamped. Try moving the TX away from the heli just a bit with the antenna down.

Just a thought... Azzy
