I don't think thats a good idea, all you are doing is killing the power to the RX you still have a live esc and motor with no means of control.
You would want to kill the power on the battery side so there is no power at all to the esc.
The couple of switched escs I have all kill the power on the board somehow for the whole esc, they don't just power down the rx.
