I get some servo chatter when I turn the transmitter and reciever on-have not experienced this before-is this a low battery problem -any ideas.

Could be that, could be the Tx too close to the Rx and swamping it. It could be a few other things too but if it's just started in a plane which used not to do it and you haven't changed anything those are the most likely.

Swamping means overloading the electronics in the receiver. I.e. the signal it is receiving is too powerful for it.

I changed the batteries in the tx to 700Mah aa size and am charging now-seems to work better all the time. I made sure non of the servos were binding on anything. Thanks for the info.
