Just a small update. Made a rc switch for my lights from parts I had lying around. Got to use up as many channels on the dx6i as I can It is made out of some 90* bent alloy scrap. BTW I figured dremel cut off wheel work great with alloy if you cut a bit of beeswax with them first to coat them. Doesn't clog then.

Yeah it works good. It has plenty of clearance under the bonnet which is good. Wasn't to hard to mount it there either.

Thanks I haven't been working on this rig and I won't be for about a month or so, so I won't have any new updates.
