RE: Blade cx problem
Make sure both your throttle stick and trim set are all the way down before turning on your transmitter. I had a similar problem a few weeks ago and it turned out that I bumped the throttle trim lever at some points between flights. The 4-in-1 will not initiate if there is any throttle input at all on the transmitter.
I'm not sure if this really addresses your problem, but it's still good to rule it out.
