[NSRCA-discussion] Radio Compartment Wiring

[Fred Huber]

Excess neatness can in rare occasions create an RF issue if the bundled 
wires are near the antenna.  The randomness of a "rats nest" of wires just 
stuffed doesn't have as high a probability of the ame issue.

But if your system is sensitive to the way the servo wires are wrapped up, 
there's probably something else going on that needs attention.
