RE: Arming switch - advice.
I almost had an accident after landing. When I approached the model (from behind). Bumped the throttle, on a Giant Scle Stick with a 160 Tacon. The plane jumped straight towards my truck. It was so fast I barely was able to cut the throttle in time. The prop was 2 inches away from hitting my bumper when it stopped. Fortunately there was nothing or nobody between the truch anf the model. It scared the heck out of me.
When starting you have more layers of protection...
So I now use the Maxxi switch, done with Anderson Power Poles. I anyway use the power poles (love them). I think it looks like a regular radio switch (unlike another kill switch that is also available that looks bulky...)
Anyway, it is cheap (around $12), small, and really easy to install. I just like the additional layer of protection it provides.
