Thanks guys. Just wondering because twice now the elevator / rudder servos that I have in have cause glitching. The first time I tried to maiden the plane I didn't know which one it was so I got 2 new ones. Then I found out today the new Hitec servo for the elevator is glitching and it's brand new. [:@] Anyway, I replaced it with a Futaba 3004 that I had and it seems good to go now. Only thing is it's only a 42 oz. servo and I didn't know if that is enough.........

It's not likely that the servo "glitching" you refer to is a servo problem, more likely something else. On my Twist maiden flight I was getting some erratic responses. I had the antenna inside the fuse in a tube, so I took it out, extended it outside the fuse, and that solved my glitch problem. Look to your set up to see what might be causing yours. Good luck.

Thanks Jim. Three of us looked at it yesterday for a couple of hours. We took everything apart and finally tracked it down to the one servo. I originally suspected the anntena routing inside the tube but the servo still glitches even when the anntena was taken out and draped over the front of the plane away from the servo. Still investigating though...........
