Default Elevator servo getting possible interference from motor

I have a V2 700 and had to remove one of the walls on the plastic servo mount for the elevator servo to get the right mesh. The servo it extremley close to the motor but not rubbing. Has anyone had to do this and did you have problems after? I can see my servo twitching while the motor is spinning. Its very random. When the motor is off the servo is fine. I would appreciate any insight I can get to a fix short of changing to a smaller motor or a V3 frame. Im running a scorpion 4525.

Thanks

When I had my v2 I had a similar setup and didn't notice any interference however, on another one of my helis while the motor started to spool I did have a servo that started to act jumpy.

I ended up discovering that my white signal lead from the servo had a small slit in one spot and when motor transmitted vibration to frame it rubbed the bearing block it was laying against. Definitely look around your servo lead to rule that out first.

Hope this helps!

I found this yesterday morning. Confirming what you said. Not sure how the hell I overlooked that when I put it back together after the servo mount mod. I guess that's what complacency gets you lol. Just glad I know what it is and don't have to guess. thanks for your input

Haha awesome that you found it. It's nice when you don't have to poke around to much to find a problem!
