Motor causing glitching on ASF

Hi all.
I found a curious problem on my MA-010 ASF this morning.I've had it a week and have run about 2 sets of batteries through it and all was fine until now.
I found that the throttle was lagging slightly on acceleration and deceleration intermittently and hardly noticeable,but it was doing it none the less.On removing the body and placing the chassis on a stand and running it up I noticed what appeared to be radio glitching.It was most notable in reverse.The symptoms were eratic throttle (speed changes on full speed) and twitchy steering.
I then tried my MR02 ASF which worked perfectly so ruled out the transmitter having a fault.
I then checked all the motor/power connections,all ok.
When checking the motor connections I had the motor partially out,still in the chassis but out enough so the gears were not in contact.For some reason I decided to try running the motor in this position,no glitches!
Put the motor back in,glitches again.
It appeared that with the motor in position,close to the board was causing the glitches.
I fitted another standard Kyosho motor and no glitches so all is well again.
The motor that is causing the glitches seems to run fine otherwise and It appears it only needs to be moved about 10mm away from the board to stop the glitching.Fitted to an MR02/03 I think the motor would cause no issues as it far enough away from the board not to affect it.
This motor had 3 capacitors fitted as opposed to the 2 normally fitted although I cannot see this affecting it.

I have not got a problem now but I'd thought I'd share my findings,and to see if anyone else has experienced anything like this.I did not expect the motors to affect the ASF board in this fashion.

Cheers,Steve.
