How would I connect this? - 03.30.2011, 12:44 AM

I'm wanting (for novelty reasons only) to be able to remotely turn my e-revo on. Instead of using a servo with a BEC to flip a mechanical switch (too big/clunky), I bought (well, its back ordered now) this remotely operated switch: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...idProduct=8833

Question is, how exactly do I connect it to have a "remote start"? This is the diagram that they provide: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s...g/e-switch.jpg

Since the remote switch has two positive wires, I was thinking (I am using a castle BEC) that I would solder one of the positive wires of the remote switch to the positive wire of the power lead on the esc (in addition, the BEC's positive wire is soldered to the positive power lead of the esc and it's negative wire soldered to the negative power lead of the esc) Then I would remove the mechanical switch that was previously on the esc and solder its positive wire in conjunction with the BEC's and remote switch's positive wires on the esc's positive power lead. I would then solder the other positive wire of the remote switch to the negative wire from the pre-existing mechanical switch on the esc.

I tried to explain it the best I could. So in all, would this plan work? If not, how could I make it work?


THANKS!
