any help would be great, thx
I would think that any receiver could tolerate running from the same supply as your 'motor', with the above mentioned 'cleaning' of the power supply itself from the noise caused by the motor.

What I think would worry me would be the voltage droop caused by the motor starting up causing the overall voltage to drop too low to support safe operation of the receiver.
