dougan1963 2 Posted October 7, 2020 Having retrieved my Boomerang from the loft after fifteen years, I was surprised how much work and money I had done on rebuilding it. I have just noticed there is no on/off switch, have fitted new racing motor, EPC, receiver and servo, does it need one? If so, how would it be wired in?

Champ85 609 Posted October 7, 2020 Usually the ESC has a switch. I don't see one on yours. I guess you need to unplug the battery to turn the car OFF? Searching around the net, I found another picture of the same ESC and there is no on/off switch. Odd! You can't really insert a switch yourself here. Even if you did put a switch in the ESC wire that goes to the receiver, the battery would still be powering the ESC BEC circuit and drain the battery. And you can't really put a switch in the battery wire - it's just too much DC current for 99% of the switches in the market to handle. Also, a suggestion: Bundle up the ESC and steering servo wires and use a zip-tie to hold them away from the driveshaft that powers the front wheels. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
