Just turning the switch off doesn't cut all power. There is still a slight parasitic draw with the switch off, all the switch kills is the BEC. Leaving your batteries plugged in isn't a good idea, especially with Lipos. If you happen to forget to unplug them you can kiss them good bye! Depending on your setup, usually you can reach under the body enough to unplug the battery. On my E-Revo I can unplug and plug the battery in with the body on, if I had to I can swap a battery with the body on. My mini late-model that I race on carpet has been getting battery swaps with the body on too.
