Default Kill Switches

Hi,

I'm in the process of intalling my first gas engine in a byron husky. I've got a great planes kill switch and upon using a meter on it i've realised it doesn't work the way i would of expected.

I've read the past topic http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/Grea...2542721/tm.htm
and now understand the engine i killed by grounding the coil.

I'm a bit shocked as on my fuji 32B, as far as i can tell, this would mean that with no switch assy. connected, i.e straight out of the box... the ignition would be LIVE!!

Is this the case?

Thanks
