Raptor 30 Radio

I am having problem with electronic, for some reason I get interference or a glitch with servos. They do sudden unwanted movement........

is it a no no to mix futaba rx with JR servos?

will futaba servos solve the glitches?

The problem is not with your JR/Futaba servo combos. All of the major brands are compatible. I would loook elsewhere for your glitching problem. These aren't the droids you're looking for. ;)

Firstly, like tdswan mentioned, it is not a problem with running JR servos on a futaba radio (I run hitech and futaba servos on a JR radio)...

Interference can come from several different places.)

1) is the antenna routed near metal (i.e. taped to the tailboom, etc) ?
2) did you shorten (i.e. cut) the antenna to make it fit ?
3) did you route the antenna near battery wires ?
4) while talking about the battery, are you sure the switch is ok ?
5) is it only one servo that glitches or all servos
6) how old is the radio/receiver

Cheers,

It could be the length of the servo wires. I have seed ferrule loops used to reduce interference.
They're like washers and the wires are wrapped around them a few times.

There are several other things to look into if you are having trouble with "glitches".

1)Are the glitches occuring no matter where you are trying to fly?
If they are only at a specific area, don't fly there.
If you are by a building it may be alarmed with a RF link (usualy dirty transmitters)
2)What frequency are you running?
Is there anything running on frequencies near your channel?
Are you on a harmonic of any of those frequencies?
Can you easily change your frequency if either of these occur?
3)Is the problem only when your TX/RX batteries are low?
Low voltage can cause frequency shift and interfere with FM Capture effect.
4)Running your antenna near any conductive material can cause "coupling"
Coupling will change the signal that your RX is receiving. It allow spurrous transmissions to be received "falsing" your receiver.
5)Running your antenna near your battery pack will cause EMF interferrence.
Avoid your battery pack at all costs!
6)If you are flying near an expressway CB radio transmitters are full of spurous and harmonic interferrence.

Thank you all for the help.

I changed all my servos to futabas and the glitch is gone
