I'm not sure about the drain that each flight takes from the battery although I've used it safely for 6+ flights of 10 minutes before and it would still pass a loaded test afterwards.

Yes, I checked the battery right after the flight with a loaded voltmeter and I moved the surfaces just as you suggested and it still had plenty of juice. I'm gonna get a new switch to take that out of the equation. I thought of cycling the battery with an Accucycle to see how much charge will the battery take but its fairly new (less than 6 months) and I'm very careful with my batteries so I wouldn't be surprised if the battery is OK. The RX is also new, it came with the 10C which I've had for roughly 4 months and has never crashed until this time. I don't know how to determine if the damage is within the RX.

I don't know if this all could be related to an odd servo issue I had two weeks ago. Its [link=http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/m_8412574/anchors_8412574/mpage_1/key_/anchor/tm.htm#8412574]HERE[/link]. I must add that the servo I talk about in that thread has been tagged DAMAGED and is not on the plane any more.
