Default another report

A flyer at one of our local feilds wrote;

"I never found or heard an explaination to the problem. I think you can rule out a incompatibility because of my Futaba RX's, because I had a reply off of one of the aerobatic lists, from a guy that had the same problem, and he was all JR. It wasn't the 6 volt packs, because we tried 4.8's. I had another reply, and this guy was using Futaba RX's like me, and have the same problem. The strange thing was, that when I was at home from the field that day, they seemed to be working fine when I set up the plane at home.But those 10 foot range checks at the field were scary.
I know that there are lots of guys using Matchboxes and Equalizers with no problems, but from my personal experience, when I see one, I'll take off and run like a jack rabbit. "
