Running gas in a carden extra. Had a few glitches (into fail safe) but got model back. A mate gave me 5 boosted leads from Hitec. They seemed to of fixed the problem but about to put a bigger girl in the air but don't know much about these leads or should I go the i4c or the ems box.

My reciever battery is 8 inches from the ignition switch the reciever is double that. The first flight went great but it was on the secondflight was the trouble. It was only with the aircraft pointing straight at me

Were you pointing your Transmitter antenna straight at the plane? That's a no-no. You never want to point the antenna straight at the plane regardless of where the plane is. You can effectively lose radio contact, thereby allowing receiver to pick up stray signals causing glitches.
