Motor wires carry high current AC signals, which can produce a lot of noise. The throttle cable being in close proximity to those motor wires could be causing issues. Or, it could be noise coming from the CCBEC. During testing, the BEC had some noise, but a capacitor ("glitch buster") helped a lot. I would suggest somehow routing the throttle cable away from the motor wires and installing a 1000uF 10v capacitor onto an unused slot on the Rx.

You could also get one of those small ferrite "donuts" similar to the ones Quark ESCs use. You just wrap the throttle cable through it for one turn fairly close to the Rx.
