Yeah, but the motor for the device actually fits right in the gap. Electromagnetic interference? Puh!

Right now the wires are a tad longer than they need to be because the layout isn't finalized. For instance, we had to shift a spike + the RC around because the radio serial cable extended past the size limit for the robot.
