Default Midair interference hits

I have a Hanger 9 Sportcap (.40 size. I say .60 though. )
I have recieved 3 short, rather severe hits while flying in my last two flights. I was able to recover and they only lasted a split second where I had no control. In other words, I didn`t do what IT did. I have a tower hobbies standard reciever and a combination of Futaba 3004 and Tower standard TS-53 servos. It did take a crash in another plane due to dumbthumb, but that was 20 flights ago. What could I do to start eleminating possibilities. The RX battery is two years old. It was fully charged on both flights. What is the most common cause of this? It may be that I am getting channel interference, but I would like to know what the main mechanical causes would be. Any help would be appreciated. I have another plane on this channel, so I`m going to see if I get any hits on it too. Any ideas guys?
