Jhautz, that was exactly one of the thousand combinations that I tried, and the result was NOT pretty - it scared the you-know-what out of me...

On the "bench", I programmed the BK, then disconnected the servo & y-connector, plugged the BK directly into the receiver, and went out to the street to take a test spin...I just touched the throttle, and BAM instant full throttle. And a 6T 540XL on 4S at full throttle (with visions of a $1000+ down-the-drain spectacular crash) was no fun.

Luckily, the glitch was just for a second, but then the throttle started jumping and surging, even with my finger off the throttle. Yeow!
