Default Where does the ESC switch go in an E-flite DHC-2 Beaver ARF?

I'm assembling an E-flite DHC-2 Beaver 25e ARF. The manual calls for a 60 amp ESC. The one Horizon Hobby sent me is a switched ESC, one with a small on/off slide switch. The manual doesn't say where the switch should go. I'm thinking maybe I should put it on the battery box cover. That might also help keep the cover from flying away in flight. Any other ideas?

This is where I put the ESC switch on my E-flite P-51B Mustang, it's easy to access and prevents accidental WOT if you happen to move the throttle stick while walking your plane to the flight line. Just turn the switch to "On" when your plane is ready to taxi onto the live runway
