4) Test run - still lose comm
5) Replace cable from battery to main switch
6) Add some mounts to reduce the vibration of the electronics board (it's mounted on some fairly thin lexan that could bounce significantly. It snapped near one of the mounting points which allowed more vibration on the side with the rio
7) Test run - drive without loss of comms for a while
Did you save the cable that you replaced? Someone might be able to look at the APP SB50 end of it and determine whether it has a defect that could cause your symptoms.
