Hey Troy,
I was checking out your pics to get some ideas for my next project, which is a Temptation. I noticed that you have the jaccio regulator on top of your receiver.
I have a 60 size Conquest that I got major radio glitches with the same regulator and a 6v lithium battery. The glitches stopped when I put servo lead between the regulator and the receiver and moved the regulator farther from the receiver. The receiver is a Futaba PCM.
I know you have a lot of flights on the airplane, so it probably hasn't been an issue, but if you do get interference, you might keep that in the back of your mind.
By the way, the Conquest has a Hanno. You gave me some advice on the setup and I have very much enjoyed the motor. I get plenty of powe4r with pretty good transition.

When you say glitches are you saying unwanted commands or is it going into Hold? A PCM would go into hold if it were being interfered with. If the surfaces are glitching it suggests the problem is downstream of the decoder. One thing that you should try is to cut out the white wire on the regulator cable. It is there for the purpose of using the DSC but very few people use that anyway. I have heard of a guy getting glitches and solving the problem by removing the wire.
