Default will it hurt anything to have all elect in the same spot?

on my wraith I have all of my elect all in the same spot and together. I wasn't sure if it will hurt anything having the esc,bec,and Rx all together.

It's not the best bet, but if it is not glitching, don't worry about it.

A lot depends on the radio, ESC, condition of the motor/brushes, etc.

This can easily be answered by taking a quick look through some of the current MOA wiring jobs. Typically there are 2 ESC's, 1 Rx, 1 BEC all smashed together and even mounted on top of a motor or VERY close to it anyway. I think you're good to go

"Excessive" heat would be the only concern....if they arent getting overly warm, no concern at all. If they are, airflow should be considered as well as your motor demands.

Running an AM receiver right next to a brushed motor is always the best idea.

It will make your vehicle go faster

Your fine unless you are running an am/fm radio.
