However, I've yet to try it on the grass.
The power delivery issue sounds like dirty connector pins to me. The negative and positive supply wires are paralleled on all the receiver pins. So, the only thing that would affect power delivery would be the PCB traces connecting the pins, or the pins themselves.

The glitching could also be caused by dirty receiver pins, especially the signal pin. Or, maybe the antenna wire is broken (either partially or intermittently). I had a Spektrum receiver that glitched. After I replaced the antenna wire, the glitching went away.
