|  Power switch location advice.
Can you offer any suggestions on where the most preferable location might be for the power switch? Thx |

U talkin about the on/off switch I assume? I always cut mine off so I never forget to unplug my lipos. Good habit to get into IMO I've almost ruined a $140 battery by forgetting to unplug it. Now I simply cut my switches off so I HAVE to unplug my batts!

most people just remove it, no need for extra unwanted wires. If you dont want to remove it, just tuck it somewhere it cant be seen but can be reached.

Save the switch if you do cut it off. They are handy for turning LEDs on/off.

The few rigs that I have not eliminated the on/off switch on, I try and put in a location were it is accessible with the body on and not where there is a risk of it being bumped off.

Best place to put it is in the spare parts box after being chopped off.

What rig are you running? That will make a difference. While many choose to remove their switch, there's nothing wrong with keeping it. Generally it's best to have it up top, but accessible if you reach up inside the shell. |
