Default Deadbolt off/on switch

Is it possible to install an off/on switch on my axial scx10 deadbolt? Any help would be appreciated

Unplugging the battery works.

There are ESCs that come with a switch, like the Hobbywing Quicrun 1080.

Even if you had a switch and turned it off, you would still need to unplug the battery or the esc would still drain the battery....

I've actually though about getting a couple connectors and a switch and creating a cutoff between the battery and the ESC.
Basically just making a 2 inch extension cord with one lead switched. I get tired of always having to reach up under the body (where I have the battery plug neatly hidden from view) to unplug.

switches never last, your best bet is to just disconnect the battery

And it keeps you from doing something stupid like forgetting the in the rig when you put it away.

The switch on the mambaX is handy and since I have it in a RPM cage it's unlikely it will come unmounted and get sheared off in a crash like most of the other switches I've had on ESCs.

Must be a reason that Holmes removes the switch on the BLE......
