Default Super Cub LP Jitter

Hello I have a new Super Cub LP and have notice lately that after you plufg in the battery with the transmitter off the servos jitter some. Somtimes even the motor makes some noise. I was wondering if you guys have any suggestions on how this can be fixed or if I should just not worry about it?

this will happen if you plug the plane in with the tx off, but you should never do this, the motor could start up without warning, very, very dangerous

Yeah. Always follow the "Transmitter first THEN the Receiver" rule. You never know what signals are going from the receiver to the ESC without the TX on and that motor could just start rotating causing lots of problems for you. I have 5 stiches on my right index finger to prove that point.

My friend and I learned that the medium-hard way, if you will. I turned my cheap Pro-Pulse car on before the TX and it took off full-bore at my friend's ankle. The car was okay, but his foot bled.

The Tx is the first one ON and the last one OFF
