Default Digital Servo Interference or something else?

Thanks Clutch,
I've experienced several brands of servo's 'get happy" on 6v, especially on a fresh charge. Normally it's not a problem since flight loads stop the chatter and you burn the peak charge off on the first flight.
What I've got here is significantly reduced range on the ground, and glitching in flight. The worst locked the rudder hard over in a climbing flat and re-kitted my plane for me.
I'm running the same receiver, transmitter, 6v battery and digital servos in a couple of other planes but they're all glow and smaller sized.
My first course of correctve action is to replace the budget leads with heavy duty braided units. We'll se how that works. I'm going to replace the no-name NiCads with Li-Ion anyway.
