Motor wires are 7 1/2in long.. i tried braiding them- no avail, i even moved the speed controller to the rear chassis brace, no difference. receiver is on the front brace- as far away as humanyl possible from the noise

do they have to be at 90 degree angles?

beleive me its sticking strait up and as high up as possible
Would haveing the aluminum antenna mount hard mounted to the aluminum chassis affect anything?
