If it's an AM radio, then you may have problems. BL is "noisy" which can cause the AM signal to be garbled. It helps to mount the antenna as far away from the motor and power wires as possible, but sometimes does not help much, and/or range can be reduced.

FM is inherently better. And 2.4GHz is best. If you want a cheap 2.4GHz controller, consider picking up the Traxxas 2.4 radio on ebay or something.
