Default Proximity of strobe wiring to my FPS system

I have the FPS system to install in my RV 7 and when I read the instructions it suggests to keep strobe and radio wiring seperate from the trim and elevator servo wires to the FPS system.

I used shielded cable to the strobe and nav light back there.

Unfortunately, I have to run the FPS Flap system wires under the seat along with the wires for strobes and nave lights.

My Question is have any of you done this and experienced problems with the FPS system as a result?

Second question, I have read here many like the FPS system of flap control and wonder if any of the newly installed have had concerns on programming and test flight with the system.

Thanks for all response

If you are referring to the Showplanes Flap Positioning System, I have never had any problems with interference no matter how I routed it.

Default Thanks Jesse

Thanks I don't think it should be either. Nice system of preselect flaps and auto trim.

Little concerned about auto elevator trim but you can always select manual I guess?
