Default RE: Dx8 still has problems

You've got to be kidding.
I've worked in the Electrical field for 30 years, so I do know a great deal about electronics. I was highly skeptical that my problem was in the radio until the testing I described in me # 7 event. That was the reason I continued to fly with the DX8 even after I lost my first plane. I do agree the voltage to the receiver will drop a little during the moving of servos, but not from 6.5 to below 3.? During my shop testing my meter on the RX voltage never dipped below 4VDC.
Even if It did drop enough to kill the RX why did resetting the DX8 fix the problem as I described.
