Try reprogramming the ESC to the radio. Check the manual on how to do it.

Ya you're probably getting radio interference.  Reprogram the radio to you car.  If that doesn't work try a different set of crystals.  Or if you have the money, get a 2.4GHz radio system.  But I recommend you try my first two solutions first.
