Default RE: Newbie question.

Good point Steve. Here is a quote from the Futaba website.

Guidelines for setting up gasoline engine models.
All ignition equipment, including an electronic kill switch, must be mounted at least 12", and preferably 14", away from all radio equipment, including throttle servos, etc. Ignition kill switch should always be on opposite side of fuselage from radio kill switch. All pushrods going to anything related to the engine must be non-conductive (just nonmetal clevises is not sufficient).

Now, it is up to you to decide who knows more about your radio equipment, Futaba or someone on RCU.

Good luck with your new hobby. Dan.
