Default RE: opto kill switch

You’re absolutely right. Hold on to that farm. That’s a cutesy video that shows what happens when everything works. What isn’t shown is what happens when it does not. A complex set of electronic components is being added to your RC system. It is called a single point failure mechanism and it is one you can live without. Another battery pack is all you need to keep your RC at the reliability level that the manufacturer designed in to it.
