My AP servos, Mac trim servo and battery are behind the rear seat of my Rans S7. Is it OK to run them all bundled together up to the panel? Or should the battery cable be separated by a few inches from the AP servos and Mac trim servo? I guess my question is whether or not there is electrical interference from that big ole battery cable.

Technically possible, but unlikely. You'd be more likely to see trim servo signals induced into the battery cable rather than than other way around. Straight DC current doesn't produce signal interference in the way we normally envision it, primarily becuse there is no signal. It can produce a magnetic field, but that's unlikely to affect your trim servo. You can use shielded wire for the trim servo if you really want to be on the safe side.
