Question Magnetic Fields?

On our bot for this year our primary drive motors are located extremely close to or electronics platform. One of the drive motors is parallel to our RC and about an inch away. It is also located about two inches above all of the victors. Should I be concerned about magnetic fields from the CIM motors potential affecting or robot's performance or even harming the RC. Also, we have our pwm cables running alongside and perpendicular to our power cables. Should we be worried about the fields made by these wires affecting the signals in the pwm cables?
