A clarification to my earlier post about the RCAT switch. Based on info provided by STG, it looks like the issue is with 6V RX batteries and not 6V ignition batteries as was my understanding.

I have ordered the RC100 switch. RCAT will modify the switch for use with 5 cell receiver battery--you just have to specify when ordering.
My plan is to run this switch as my only ignition switch. I plan to wire it into a "Y" extension so I have place to recharge the ignition battery. I am open to change my mind on this. The switch defaults to open (or off) when there is no power or it fails. That means I should be able to shut down the motor in an emergency by turning off my receiver switch.
