Hi,
I was thinking of a good and easy arming switch solution for my Sebart MythoS 125E.
Setup will draw about 80-85 amp (Hacker A60-7XS, 8 cells, MasterMezon ESC, APC 19x10 to start with).
Not sure if it is a requirement yet with external arming switch in various countries when competing.
Have checked these solutions below so far but I'm sure it is more arming swith solutions out there You can recommend:
- ArmSafe Kit 10 guage

- Emcotec SPS SafetyPowerSwitch, 44-71 gram depending on what version is choosen, maybe little heavy.
And I do not know if it is or will be considered external arming switch in a true sense since it is electronic
and also is unarmed when the magnet or pin is put
on, so it is kínd of backwards compared to simple external
arming switch with just a contact that is removedwhen disarming. If You for some reason loose the magnet or pin
and have no spare You are in armed situation until you disconnect the batteries.

- Arming Switch High Current (but it does not say how high current it can cope with continous)

- Or the supersimple solution, just a wire outside the fuselage where You connect/disconnect
like this image below,can not be much easier than that but not so neat perhaps

What do You use in Your F3A machine and why did You choose Your particular solution?
Are there any newer arming switch solutions that is on the market now perhaps that I should take into consideration?
Would You say I would be crazy if I skip the arming switch and just unplug the batteries as unarming?
There is the canopy in my case that is screwed on/off so it would take maybe 10-15 sec to get the canopy off
to disconnect the battery. I really want to use a good arming switch so it is not that I do not want, but I want to be
comfortable with it and it must be bulletproof.
Thanks,
Bo</p>
