I would try unplugging all the servos and rebinding, then plug in one servo at a time. You may have a servo that's getting funky with you. If that doesn't do anything, call Horizon, they will work with you on the phone. They have always been square with me. Good luck. Besides, you have a couple of weeks before flying weather strikes in NJ..

Sounds like you may have a connector problem. Try using another batt. if you have one, not to check the batt, but to check the connector. If not, check your connector pins on your present batt. Try binding without any servos plugged in. It's a proccess of elimination.
