Do any of the failed aircraft have any one common part in the radio system that you swapped into each plane?

The DX7 is the best radio I've ever used but, I did have a similar situation. I lost a ParkZone Corsair three times in the same manor. I finally found a small hole in the LiPo battery. It was from a motor mount screw that had punctured the battery and the system would short out, losing the radio link.

You may have a bad wire in the battery, switch harness, or receiver. It only take a second of power loss to lose the link. It can be restored if you turn the transmitter off and back on, but who has time to do that?

I don't believe radio interference is an issue. The DX7 uses Dual Link, two seperate signals.
