Switches are, IMO, best for programming and getting the ESC calibrated to your radio. I have a few ESCs without switches and I don't know how I'd be able to plug in the Deans and work the transmitter if I weren't ambidextrous. I do think that they should go with the open circuit switch though, my MGM is that way and since the switch broke off it has still worked just fine. My problem with having a switch is it's inevitably going to get dirty and messed up, so it would have to be a well-protected switch (rubber boot over the opening in the case would suffice).


All I ever wanted was an honest weeks pay for an honest days work.

unless you really need it or have some meansof protecting it from dirt- trash it.



In my 8ight I run a Jst extension under the battery tray to my radio box, with a switch in the standard position (as nitro) wired up to my esc's.

Has one of those silicone rubber boots and works great.

I prefer the switch, but I tend to choose convienance over anything else. And mine arcs too on first plug in, but im used to it by now.
