Two Problems
 

Hello I'm running a CX2. My First problem is, when I throttle up to about 70 percent, I notice one of my servos is in my words "Twitching" It has been doing this for the past 2 weeks now, usually after I disconnect the battery the problem seems to go away. However tonight it hasn't. Could i have a bad servo? And this is the servo that makes it go left and right.

My Second Question: My controller, Its at 4.5V, and it keeps beeping when it goes down to 4.4V. Is there any connection between the "twitching" mentioned above? Could the batteries in my radio be low?

Thank you in Advance

The beeping is a low battery warning. Just get some fresh ones, I use recharables. It could cause issues with your "twitching".
If you still have problems with "twitching" then adjust the gain contoller on your 3-1.

Good luck and have fun.

Did you have a bad crash? A servo could be stripped although it's unlikely.

Changing the TX batteries is a good idea. I don't remember what the low battery cutoff is, but it's in the manual.
The TX beeping at you is a good indication that your batteries are indeed too low.

IMO, adjusting the gain pot on the 3 in 1 would not address a servo twitching problem but it would a tail twiching problem.

You are right.

One point to note is that if you use rechargables then you are not using 1.5 cells they are 1.2 votl cells, thats why i use chuckables 6volts total

Just put some regular batteries in the tx. They last months and NiMh rechargables loose charge over time, about 10% a week. I had a twitching servo, not sure why, I ended up replacing it with a new one for $15 from the LHS and the new one did not twitch.

But the new TX for the CX2 has an charger plug on the side, just get a dc 1.2v ac adaptor to fit.....or is that plug do something else.....
