Problem.... Radio freezes ? Quad

 Running APM2.6 clone with ext gps and compass. 433mhz LR receiver and radio.

Never had this before.

Not sure If its a radio problem or a Board problem.

Fly my quad in Stabilize with great results. Haven't fine tuned Loiter yet , it tends to drift.

I have 3DR Telem radios but I am waiting for cables for the APM board so I cant use them yet. So USB only right now.

Last couple of flights...After a few minutes of flight, doesn't matter if its a foot from the ground or 30 ft. What ever the radio controls are set at....I suddenly lose control of the quad. It does whatever it was doing before I lose control....ie.. If in loiter in stays there, or in Stabilize it fly's in the direction It was supposed to be going until either crashing or running out of battery and falling from the sky. (fail-safe doesn't seem to trigger on low battery) . I can do anything I want to the radio, but no response. When re- booted , all works again fine until the same happens. Fully charged battery in both radio and on quad.

Radio or Apm issue ?
