If you're having issues with your heli's, the problem is most likely in the heli itself...
 
Depending on the model/mfgr of the heli, these are ALL things that I (or my customers) have encountered that have caused radio issues.
  • bad bearings
  • broken struts
  • cracked sideframes
  • excess vibration
  • loose wiring
  • bad connectors
  • loose screws allowing vibration btwn parts
  • Worn McDaniels Remote Headlock used with Enya plugs
  • etc...
Seriously, I would check the heli first before I tried another radio. 2nd...DO NOT use PCM Rx's until you resolve the issue(s) because, IMHO, they "mask" the problem. Stick with PPM and use a decent glitch counter to help you isolate the issues. None of my heli's fly PCM!!! And yes, I'm the same Sheldon that supports the US Soaring NATs, and sells the BC6 Flight Monitor. I don't care whose detector you choose to use, albeit the BC6 is the best one for the job, as it was designed, for R/C Heli's, with this task in mind. Got to www.yntdesign.com and check the specs/instructions.

Subject: Re: [RCSE] Spektrum Range Test *********

the reason i had posed the question is because i was thinking of using the Spektrum on my electric helis. 
 
i am having issues with conventional radios on the heli, but if Spektrum is not any better ... then i guess i might as well stick to my PCM RXs.  BUT then again, helis are never really flown very far ...
