Default Gas Engine Throttle Servo Placement

I've seen what apears to be conflicting information on placement of the throttle servos on gas engines. My Brison manual says to keep anything connected with the ignition at least 12" from anything connected to the receiver. Sounds logical. But the instructions on my 27% Aeroworks Ultimate shows the throttle servo mounted on the engine box. That means the the servo lead will pass within 6" of the ignition battery, leads, and switch. And I just read an article in the Oct '03 issue of MAN describing how to mount a gasoline engine and it uses the same servo placement. What's the true skinny on this issue?
