OK I have another problem

, Are you putting your servos on a y harness?? I am and I found out its making my servo arms bounce back and forth after the stroke, why this problem?? I have a 6.0v 4200mah rx pack so the bat has plenty of power, Im using heavy duty y harness's and extensions so the wire is big enough for current, just stumped and really wanna fly this bird. Well on the bright side of things the SV 50cc engine is a sweet piece of art, very powerful and purrs like a kitten, had to adjust both high and low end, runs great!! lol please help me out with the servo problem.

Witch servos are they elevator or eilerons,
are the servos 6 volt rated is yore battery pack charged to high, is youre transmiter entena collaps
when you are round the plane, do a range check with the entena down, The servos are they DS or standard,

How do you have your receiver entena wire run threw the fuse,

All the servos have the problem like they dont have enough power, i unplug one from the y harness and the servo still connected runs perfectly. yes the servos are futaba 3305's and are 6v rated, pack charged to high??? didnt think that would be a prob, doubt it tho. only messed with it inside the house no range checks, antenna wodded up inside fuse right now for easy get to since still workin on plane now. just stummped never had a problem like this, been flying rc for 8 years

well, I had that prob with my yak 54 with a spe 26cc on it and it turned out to be that the spark plug cap wasn't tight enough. I tried to single out each servo to see if it was causing the problem but that didn't work. I use nyrod for the trottle servo...

sorry about the last post didn't know if you were running it at the time are not...

So it seems that the servo your disconnecting is the one causing the problem. U said that when one is unpluged from the y harness the other one connected runs perfectly... are all the other servos running fine once you do this? if so that one servo could be causing the RF. You said it happens on the stroke, is that when the engine is running? or the servo stroke? check the Y harness and all connections, ( I'm not an expert but just making some sugestions from what im reading)

I Use 6v on my 3305's and they work just fine

If you 3D I wouldn't use just one.

man t3 looks awesome flys sweet! Bad news man the sv 50cc is a piece of $*#*#$@ !!!!! The engine did run for about 1 tank of gas ran great then it happened, the mounting ear tab broke off and u just cant jb weld it back so... I called hobby city and the said send it back and I'll get a full refund since the problem is real familiar with the engines. So guys dont do what I did and just buy a nice DA or 3W. so Im ordering a DA 50r soon. Prob gonna be another month or so for maiden
