I'm having intermittent issues with my Dragonfly and I believe it is due to the board.
Sometimes it gets as signal and sometimes not. Other times when I turn off the throttle the motor runs for approx 5 seconds before turning off.

Where is the best place to get a replacement board. Or can it be trouble shot?

Check the batteries on your tx. And do a continunity test with the volt meter on the receiving antenna. you probably have a bad solder joint there.

I dont know if this would be a problem with others boards... but i had a severe problem with my esky honeybee. At random times, it would yaw out of control, and ignore all my commands for about 5 seconds. then the throttle would just die. It kept doing this till i replaced the tail motor with the dc-166 from allelectronics.com. Now i can fly it battery after battery with no probs...

it seems like at high rpm, the vibration widens the gap between the bad solder joints and the contacts on the pcb causing all these glitches we've had.

Where do you get the gear for the dcm-166?
