My TX was replaced after the second time I sent it in. I lost two aircraft sent the radio in and told them I could smell an electrical smell when I adjusted the gimbal springs. They said it was ok and sent it back. I lost another aircraft and sent it in a second time. They said the "deck" was bad and replaced it. My last loss was with the new TX.

The last two losses were not during 3D flight. One was just on a down wind to final. Straight and level when the a/c acted like our old time glitching - control/no control - erratic flight/control/no control erratic flight/control etc. that lasted about 10 seconds. The last loss did not include erratic flight just loss of control at take-off (new TX).

Another member of our club lost an Andrew Jesky Extra 330 electric with the same erratic switching between control and not. One a/c I was able to save. It was a little higher so I was able to do some pointing away from the ground between the erratic sections. A real heart pumper. Because of the new TX I thought (wrongly) that my troubles were over.
