Default Help with electric noise problem

Hi All
I have a Mirage pusher prop plane and have flown it twice and suffered a lack of control on both occasions
I have traced the problem down to electrical noise - when the motor is running I can only get about 8 paces away in an aerial down range test.
As it is a pusher plane the motor is of course at the back and the battery is at the front for balance I have extended the motor wires (brushless) to the ESC to have the ESC at the front for balance

Will this cause more interferance than extending the battery wires ?

The motor wires run directly past the reciever which I know is not best practise but I have no option, in testing I removed the reciever from the plane as far as the servo wires etc would allow but still had the range problem.
