Guys, does anyone know where you can buy rubber covers for over your switch. I have some from some old Airtronics with a metal plate that holds it tight against the switch but I need more of them. I am using JR now and these are totally waterproof. I hope somebody still makes something that will work. Thanks in advance.

First, apply silicone sealant around the edges of the switch / charge jack. Second, apply Vaseline to the switch itself and / or the moving door of the charging jack. Inspect switch after every flying session. Has worked for me for over a year.

Tower lists several:

Maybe that will help.
Personally, I prefer to mount the switch internally and use a wire through a snug hole to actuate the switch.
