Default hey mike, focus 6 trouble

Mike hitec service,

i have a focus 6

im having trouble with ch 1 right stick, left right cylic.

radio glitch, powered up tx then rx with no stick movement

the hs81 servo goes crazy. with rapid cycling back an forth an buzzing.

then bound up at one end of its stroke still buzzing .

thinking i had stripped a gear i opened the servo up

an the output gear was stripped. i replaced the gears an tried it again, an it did

the same thing.an stripped the output gear. ouch

then i tried it with a standard size servo an it went crazy an buzzing but did not strip the gears.

now im thinking i have an rx or a tx problem.

i also have a focus 4 an 2 hitec receivers

so i did some troubleshooting by swapping back an forth between rx 's an tx's, an determined that there is a problem with the focus 6. it glitches on both rx's

with the focus 4 , no glitch on both rx's



the symtom described ,what do you think is wrong with my tx?



is there anything i can try , to fix this?

before i send it in for repair



what would be a typical cost to repair this tx?
