Bundling wiring

[Bison52]

My knowledge of the finer points of electronics is limited but as I was cleaning up the wiring on my first build I wondered about this. When you zip tie all those tiny little wires together into neat bundles, do you run any risk of having them interfere with each other, signals bleeding over or something like that?

Keep the high voltage away from the low voltage, twist the low voltage wires, also.
Keep the low voltage away from anything that emits noise, like power supplys and fpv tx's.
Sand all sharp cf edges on the body where any wire comes near.
Wire wrap, though not necessary,does make it look sexy and help prevent damage from chaffing.
Don't over tighten the zip ties and make sure you don't have any bundles loose vibrating on the frame.

I'm in pretty good shape except I think I've got one small gauge set of wires that comes directly off the distribution board to the telemetry unit bundled with an ESC set. Need to redo that. Where I zip tied the low voltage wires, I put a little piece of split shrink wrap (unshrunk) to keep the zip tie from cutting into the wiring. Also used a lot of plastic wire mesh protector wherever anything crossed an edge.

Think I'm good to go.

Guess I'll tie it down in the backyard, put some juice to it, and see if I can do my Dr. Frankenstein impersonation. "It's alive! It's alive!" That would be the Gene Wilder version.
