I know a few guys were getting glitching but that was due to the receiver being to close to a nitro motor (probably could call it a design flaw in the chassis) so they moved their receivers to their transponder mounts and have eliminated the problem, this also happened with futaba radios aswell. You wouldn't have that problem as you say it's electric so is your antenna running through any carbon fibre or plastic containing a lot of carbon or is it running un-protected near or parralel to any motor or esc wires?

But in saying that when i bought my DX3.0 one of my receivers would intermittently go into the set fail safe mode, i tried binding them again and again and again, tried a whole different bunch of receiver packs, all fully charged and it would still happen. Some times i wouldn't even get out of the pits some times it would happen halfway around the track and yes it's very frustrating I race with my LHS owner so i gave it to him that night at the track and had it diagnosed and replaced within a week. They said there was a problem with it remembering that it was binded, what that means i have no idea but i got a new receiver for my troubles and have not had a problem since

What did their tech dept. have to say?
