Default engine interference issolation

ok i know that most of the people here use the engines for planes, but how do you issolate the engine interference comming from the engine. all i get is constant glitching with the motor running. i have another set of elctronics that i am going to try, but if that dosen't solve the problem i need to figure this out. do i possible need to groung the electronics to the frame????
anyways my head hurts so i will let some else think of something to do..

PS it is coming together nicely

Hello,
With airplanes it is recomended to keep the radio equipment 10-12 inches away from the engine ignition. Don't use any metal control rods or wiring between the engine and the radio. Keep the antenna away also. Use a resister spark plug gapped at between 20-25 thousands. I don't know how the car and boat people accomplish this, maybe they use sheilding of some sort. Try the car forum. Good luck.

Yes. Champion have an R at the begining. NGK and others have a R in the id number such as BPMR6F. If you do a search of RCU on thease things, you would be suprized at what you will find.

This has nothing to do with your problem, but thats a sweet truck. That's based off a T Maxx right?

On the resistor plug thing, take the # off teh current plug, and take it down to your small engines place, tell them you need that plug in a resistor version.
