You can still use the A123. You just need to add a regulator to cut it to 5 volts. The A123 Batteries are very good. Durable and you can charge them fast.

If it is more than one servo I would suspect a problem in the receiver. I suppose that the gain on the AS3X System could be too high as well.

Does it happen when you are in low rates?
