I am not going to run an external bec, or a loaner transponder, which sort of defeats the purpose of running the MM Pro over th Mamba Monster, which has been trouble free.
@brushlessboy,
The end points were set correctly with 5% extra wiggle room. The lights flickered just by turning the wheels in the air, there was no binding, and a slight touch of the hand to add constant resistance to the servo would turn the transponder led completely off.

The surges pulled by the servo are very short -- less than a few milliseconds. The capacitor will supply the current for the very short high amp surges that are tripping the over-current.
