RE: Flutter
There might not be anything wrong here. If you have the antenna collapsed and it is a few feet from the receiver you shouldn't get random servo movements but if you are too close to the receiver with the antenna down you can get some jittery servo movement. How far apart are the TX and RX when you test this? How far away can you walk with the antenna down and still get commanded servo movement?
One more thing; the batteries are fully charged, right?
