Default Need help with radio glitch

Hey guys, I was out flying my caliber 30 today for one of the first times, Which by the way went extremely well, the caliber flys great... anyway, I noticed a strange radio glitch at certain spots. For some reason everytime I was up in the air and started to drop the throttle stick, the helicopter would twitch for a split second, it wasnt major but i'm worried it will get worse and cause a crash of some sort.

I kept trying it over and over again and almost every time it would glitch at the same throttle position. It was usually when I was bring it back into a hover after coming from forward flight.

I am going to look over the helicopter tonight to see if I can find any metal on metal vibrations that could be causing it, but in the mean time does anyeone have any ideas as to why it would only do it at a certain rpm?

Thanks a lot, I cant thank everyone enough for all the help, this site has been a major part of my new hobby.

P.S. I am using a Futaba 7c, with a non-pcm (PPM) reciever

Maybe I should just upgrade to a PCM reciever and it will go away?
