Default servo moving when using throttle

Title says it all.

Spectrum rx, Mamba max with up to date software. No BEC yet, one on order.

645 front servo not affected. Rear dig servo is 225 bb HT.

Dig servo moves enough when I throttle that the dig will engage.

Besides a bec, what else can I try?

Two servos taxing the esc and battery.
Typical glitch.
A BEC should eliminate the problem.

I went throught this. It was because the third channel mix setting was on. Not sure what radio you have but check that.

I was looking at my TX, and didn't think I had mixing, but I do, and it was at 125% for throttle reverse, Turned it off, and all is well.

Still getting the BEC just for good measure.

I ran into this same problem yesterday while crawling, at full throttle, my bullies dig-a-majig switch servo would glitch a little and sometimes contact the rear motor switch killing power to it. Gotta look into the mixing problem myself now!
