Futaba has been informed, but no feedback from them.I went further and modified Rx by disconnecting + servo rail in Rx from Rx internal power supply and connected battery + output directly to a + servo rail in Rx. This way servos are getting power supply directly from the battery and power glitches, which are coming from HV 500 class servos do not affect RF part of receiver. After such modification even capacitor is not needed as the battery low internal resistance is "killing" noise coming from servos.
I have the same problem with my R7018SB. You are clever to use a capacitor to solve the problem. Have you reflected the bug to Futaba? What is their response? Is Futaba going to solve the problem for us or it leaves us to fix it ourselves by adding a capacitor?

Can you post a schematic of the modification?
or a short video tutorial of how to do it?
thank you

wild like to see how much power/volt it was in the bateria there?
now I know why I crashed my skymaster f18...dame
If you crash your jet with their crap, do they pay for that ?.
i have 2 7018 new in the box i cant trust this receivers. so many problems and i will try to change in another products in tower hobbies..
