I was wondering about the same thing. I was planning on simply installing a switch between the receiver and the ESC. Is there any reason not to do that ? Thanks.
Hi Art -

Just be aware that your battery will continue to be slowly drained even if the switch between the ESC and receiver is turned "off." So don't leave the battery connected after flying. Many a battery pack has been ruined because someone thought such an on-off switch stopped the battery from being discharged.
