I had the same phenomenon with my Futaba 603FF receiver, by the way, so i don't think this is a TFR4 specific issue.

Glitch buster ordered.

I tested the idea first by hooking up a 6v battery pack and connecting that to the receiver. Worked perfectly, proving that it's a voltage issue.

I'll let you know if it works.
