Lipo battery - whether to switch

Posted 2 years ago 5 revisions Sign in to contribute
I am looking for help/guidance regarding switches in my motor circuit.
My questions are:
1. Should I put a switch on the battery supply ?
2. If so, what rating should it be ?
3. There is no switch to the receiver/ESC at present and I believe there should be one. Can anyone confirm this please.

Now, for reference, the circuit comprises the following:
A 5S 5000mAh 30C Lipo battery; 40A fuse; 90A marine ESC; 3 20A fuses; a 46x50 brushless motor; Flysky receiver. (as yet no switches)

Any guidance will be greatly appreciated. 😉
