Default CP+ servo or interference?

Newbie here, bought a CP+ recently. Had previously played with just some 2 channel mini's. Learned to hover the CP+, took it outside and then after a short flight, replaced the broken frame :-). No problem, five dollars and two hours later. Did some more hovering just finr after that. When new out of the box, I discovered the antenae on the control was loose and so the heli would freak out a little during power up and when I moved the control it would throttle up and pitch oddly by itself. Tightened the antenae and it was fine. Well, it is doing it again. After green light on power up, it will setup and then a few seconds later the rotor starts spinning fast with no input. Sometimes on power up one of the servo's is maxed in a particular direction as though the control lever was moved all the way but it wasn't and it sits there and "twitches" and then the rotors go crazy again. Could it just be a little vodka in the control? The light on the brain allways blinks red then green then steady green even with the strange behavior. Your thoughts- thanks in advance- joe

Oh - I also have a cp pro and it works fine in this area. Can I swap any parts for troubleshooting?

Sorry to see no one responded.

For the next guy- it was the crystals.
