Thank you all for your great experiences sharing with me.

I'm certainly going to let you know guys what Hitec people got to say to me. I have filled out their form, as I bought the Rx brand new over Ebay and I did not see any bobbin come with it. Crystal was brand new as well I bought it. Engine was brand new, plane was brand new, only thing old was my TX, JR XF421EX. Never had a problem, never had problem with the RX I'm currently using Hitec's Electron 6. The flying field I fly, there is no huge structure building, only a lot of trees around, haven't seen any cell tower, there is a shooting range nearby, never went down their to take a physical look, as echo there is a lot so we keep hearing the shots being fired all day around.

Antenna wire had never been around servo arm which may have caused chafing, so getting chafed by servo gets ruled out. Servos do chatter, their are many reasons and naturally at home we have current all around our house, so where there is current there is magnetism or electromagnetic waves which cause a lot of things. I get buzzing sound on my guitar as well whenever I switch the pick up selector, as pick ups do have magnets in it, ceramic and alnico. So I pretty much understand that. Having that happened in an open flying field where there don't seem to be any kind of collateral or any kind of other interference exist, I dont know how it happened.

I'd go for the receiver's fault and I think as antenna wire was long and it was going in between 2 servos, so I had to push it downward through the slit and gave some slack, and then tape against the servo's bottom. It's really kind of complicated. I'd be so sure to let you guys next week whenever I get a response from Technical support team of Hitec. As the form I filled out and sent them the receipt, so if you don't send them the receipt it is left to the discretion of the technician whether he checks it or not. Thats first thing I heard. Anyway I'd keep you guys posted.

Thanks again
