Default loss of signal from close range

I've just put together an ef extra 300e. TX is futaba 7CAP, receiver is Hitec Dual Conversion. Just made my maiden flight and after 5 mins had a really bad glitch on the elevator, i brought the model in safely. Standing around 3 foot behind the model i tried to trim the rudder, nothing happened, i wiggled the sticks and nothing moved, not even a little. I then moved to the side of the model and everything was fine. The motor never reset itself at any stage, so it appears that power was still going to the esc. I chacked for loose connections but none are apparent, anyone have any ideas??
