RE: radio?
Borrow a friends crystal set and try new crystals before you do anything else.
One could be bad or maybe you just had some bad luck on that frequency the last time you tried to run the truck.

RE: radio?
buy another crystal set...no matter what, change out your crystals and see if the glitch stops, you could have damaged one of your crystals, or somebody could've been doing something on that frequency last time you were running...

Get a hold of HPI support. A friend of mine has a Firestorm Flux that he had a bad radio with and they replaced it.
