Default CC bec?

Has anyone here rigged up an on/off switch or wired the bec differently to where the esc switch will work. I don't care for not having an on/off switch now. I do still have it on the esc. but the bec still powers up the servos just being plugged in. My battery connection is under the body and when you wanna stop after awhile and take a break, you gotta undo the body and unplug it which nisn't that big a deal, but still not like just flicking the switch to cut off!

I've never done it but don't see any reason why you couldn't hook it up to a switch

I, too, just got used to plugging/unplugging it to work. I went ahead and chopped the switch off the ESC.

You could go to Radio Shack & get a small switch, wire it into the red wire from the pack to the BEC. Ideally it will handle 10A @ 12VDC.
