I have had experience with the JR 610 reciever not liking 5 cell. It will glitch on a fully charged pack. This showed up on a 1/6 scale extra that I had. I switched back to 4 cells. I saw a guy with a BIG DC-3 fight a glitch problem for 30 min. I suggested to him that it might be his 5 cell pack. He did not think that was it but the problem went away after the radio had been on a while. Mike
