Jim, great tip on the flash light dowel!  I've got all sort of dowel
gadgets/tools, I'll have to add this one to my collection.

think you found interference between the elev and rudder cables from the
other posts I read.Unwrap them(Only cross the rudder one time).
Suggestion===Get 2 flashlight bulbs , wire them in series, mount them on a
1/4 " dowel,maybe 18" long and run wires to the other end and connect a old
receiver battery to the bulbs.  Now you can lay this in the fuse and have
two hands to work with and have light at the end of the tunnel(fuse).

transmitter.

This only occurs from the rudder there is no equivelant
