Default Interference clamp filter, where to mount them

http://www.yokomo.co.jp/yokomonew/ne...ucts2003_4.htm

look at the YM-CF


I saw JM Betticher mount these babies at the battery wires, + and -.
Whereas I understood the best place would be at the motor wires.

Please a well based explination.
Thanks,
Pizza

I think best way is as the asian drivers are using the filters.
Itīs at the - battery and - motor wires.

Surikarn was using them at this picture

Maybe not.
But you donīt see the filters very much at any race in the USA or Europe. At least I havenīt seen any picture or car using them since now. I see JMB from time to time and I even havenīt seen him using the filter since now.

But if I had seen any filter since now it always was on a car from an Asian driver. Donīt know the reason for this. But maybe the other drivers donīt know of these or maybe it have to do with the ESC in use. I know some ESC cause more glitching than others.
Beside this I have seen Hara using the filters very often.

What do you know!
I am also asian


look at my pro 4 with the novak ESC.

It was fine with my futaba one but it glitches alot with the novak.

For me I can't put it on the motor wire because the - wire is too short. If i put it on the - battery wire, my speedcontrol wines.

So i put it on my servo wire. Makes the car neater too!

the filter made my steering rock solid in low throttle

I find just twisting the motor + and - wires together does a great job of reducing glitching. I forgot to do it once yesterday and my car went nuts, went back and twisted them and my car went back to normal.

I run one clamped over the signal wires that plug into the RX, seems to work fine right there although I didn't glitch without them either, just a precaution.
