I use the Smartfly EQ10 on all of my large jets. I have never had any type of glitch or failure using them. Its not cheap because the EQ10 is around $250 but its well worth the money:

For any size plane
5-cell NiCd/NiMH or 2-cell A123 battery packs or use with SuperReg or TurboReg when using lithium 2-cell packs
“Smart-sense” inputs will isolate a bad battery or indicate a bad connection
Filtered and regulated 5.0V power to receiver
Receivers can be end-loading or top-loading
Ten servo channels with full servo matching
LED indicators for servo and receiver power
Full RF filtering of all signals in and out of unit
Fully buffered signal line for each servo
Long servo lead line matching
High-current Deans Ultra Plug power input connectors
Optional Failsafe-switch operation
Light weight, 2.6 oz, 74g
Compact design, 4” x 3”
