Its acting like it is receiving constant commands to go back and forth but the transmitter is in neutral wheel position. I've tried adjusting trim and other transmitter settings but no help. I will note that the servo ONLY jerks when the transmitter is ON. I have a Spektrum DX3C radio.
Any advise?

Thanks, Rick
I had the same problem, I have just added a Novak GTB capacitor (all I had) to the receiver and it has fixed the problem, It's only been bench tested at this stage so unsure if the cap will hold up, will find out next weekend.
