RE: 2.4 Glitches - It Does Happen!
That is why the Hitec 2.4ghz system is so nice. You can use the Rx SPC port with a seperate battery or your EP lipo up to 35 volts. As I understand it, that way your Rx is protected from voltage drops from servo loads. You might still get a temporary link drop from RF problems but the Rx will fail safe and you should fly through it. Of course if it happens when you are doing a snap roll at 20 feet then you may have to use your garbage bag to take your plane home.
It will be interesting to see if new Spetrum stuff comes up with a copy of the SPC port for when the Dx8 comes out.
