Hobbywing 1080, power button mount local?

[NitroDarwin]

I am up way to damn late and can't think straight but new rc part! Where has every one mounted the power button? Not sure yet and wanted to ask others
Thanks and off to bed I go!

Somewhere easy to reach? I put mine on the rx, under my wraith's hood. I can just reach it with the body on.

I stuck (3M tape) my ESC to the inside of the plastic side panel of my bomber and 3M'd my button to the inside of far back of the same panel. It's so simple to reach down and after lots of bashing and even submerging nothing has moved. I naturally don't run the drivers. My reasoning was so that I can easily check temps of the ESC and motor.

I stuck it to the side of the esc (that's mounted to the receiver box lid)

I have just routed the wiring to the passaenger side and 3m'd it on the dash in front of the co-pilot ;) i.ll take a pic when i get home

Like that idea, just a pain when working on it. Maybe velcro to hold and removable when in need of service

Sorry I just edit my picture it was way out of proportion ;) So I realy like my setup, easy to reach for on/off plus I have the cable that goes to the esc that connect to the programming card in the same spot so I can easily plug it and change anything like drag brake or else. yep great set up for me ;)

I mount my ESC switches (where I haven't taken them off) far inside out of the way where it can't get bumped.
Once turned on I never turn off.
Gets you into the habit of never leaving a lipo plugged in & in the truck after running.

That does work for slide switches, but with this esc it has to be turned on every time you plug in a battery. So we have to be able to reach it

Ah push button, I should have picked that from the pic.
My HW SCT esc I use in my Bomber has a slide switch.

For a switch location not easily bumped from outside what about stuck to the underside of the dash, accessed through the hood/battery access.
Dependent on battery size I realise

I know this is probably way to late but I wanted to share what I did. This is one of the amo cans from my wife's scx10ii kit all I had to do was remove the top cover from the button.
