If you need them, Use them. I don't.

YES THEY WORK!!!! YES YES YES!

Make sure you do this though, place the ferrite ring AFTER the wire is AWAY from the speed control! That way it filters out all the noise instead of cleaning it out and then getting more interference from another source. Will post pics of you'd like an example.

If your wiring is routed correctly, then no ferrite ring is needed. I'm running
an FM RX with no glitches in the last 100 flights.

The ferrite rings minimized my glitches but were still a problem till I got the spectrum radio, END of glitches period.

So i am running the antenna out the back towards the boom and it is better. Only glitches about once a flight, but if a ferrite ring will help even more i will try it.

I have tried a few different recievers and I get more with some and less with others. So I will try the ferrite ring and let ya know.
