OK, this is a first for me and it has me totally baffled, not to mention that frustrated [:@] is a major understatement.[>:]

I've been trying to get my new MDS .18 running and broken in.[8D]

I turn on the radio so I can control the throttle, it works just fine.[8D]

I go to put the glo ignter on ( powered by a power panel) and the servos start to twitch like its got a major case of the jitters. Then it stops. The radio is dead. Won't work at all.[X(]

Replaced the batteries, nothing.[]

Replaced the crystals, works for a short time, until I connect the glo igniter, twitches like crazy, then again the radio doesn't work.[]

Replaced the switch. Works, then the same thing again.[>:]

Observations............

Just moving the power cord of the glo igniter clip close to the engine and radio compartment causes the radio to jitter like crazy.

Attaching the glo igniter to the glo plug produces a high pitch whine from the glo plug ( at 1amp), as well s knocking out the radio.

Reducing the amperage to the glo plug reduces the frequency of the whine, but does not stop it unless the amps are turned all the way down to zero. (can't start an engine that way).

Tried two other glo igniter clips and the same whine is produced as well as the radio jitter when bringing the glo igniter close to the engine and radio compartment.

Tried two other brands of plugs with the same results.

The radio is a JR, AM on 75 mhz. Have never had ANY problems withit before. Less than a year old.

I have no clue to what is causing this

I'm gonna try things again, to at least get the radio to work again. Before I even think of putting a glo plug clip into the power panel again, I'll wait for some suggestions........
