CarbonFiberChassis
Noise is generated in any area where a large amount of electric
current is flowing. Position the receiver and antenna cable as far
away from the motor, battery, ESC,
and their associated cables as possible. (Metal or carbon fiber
chassis components will also conduct electricity and generate
noise.)
Since R/C models are controlled via radio signals, taking appropriate
measures against noise generated by on-board equipment is of
utmost importance. Take adequate measures against noise so that
your machine can fully realize your driving potential.

Keep antenna cable away from all sources of noise!
When installing the receiver to the chassis or R/C
equipment deck/tray, use two or more pieces of thick
double-sided tape to raise the receiver off the chassis
surface. By increasing the separation between the
receiver and the noise-generating carbon-fiber chassis
components, the effects of noise can be decreased.
Raise the antenna cable vertically from as high a position as possible. Insert the antenna cable into the antenna pipe so that the tip
of the antenna aligns with the end of the pipe. Make the length of cable which runs between the receiver and the pipe as short as
possible and position the antenna holder as close to the receiver as possible. Position the antenna cable away from sources of
noise such as the chassis and R/C equipment deck/tray. Use an antenna pipe and antenna mount that are made from plastic, since
metal parts will conduct noise.
Engine vibrations may damage the receiver. Make sure to attach a
grommet (receiver holder) to reduce the effects of such vibrations.
Do not attach the receiver directly to the chassis or R/C equipment
deck/tray with double-sided tape. Also position the receiver so that it
does not contact the heat and exhaust of the engine and muffler.
