Default Inteferance

Hi i have a twinjet with two 480 motors that came with 3 capacitors for each motor but in the picture only showed one on each motor so that is the way i soldered them up, when i came to range check the plane starts gitchin after only 7 or 8 steps away with the tx aerial down i dont think this is adequate range. Do i need to take the motors out and solder on the exrtra capacitors if so where do i solder them are there any other things i can do to reduce inteferance as this is my first electric model thanks in advance Lee.

The three capacitors go from the outside can (ground) to one terminal, from the outside can (ground) to the other terminal, and across the two terminals (this is probably the one you put on).
