I just finished a waterproof switch for my JAE 21. It is made using a magnetic reed switch, covered with a tube. The glass reed switch is pictures in the middle. It is held in the tube with goo. With the cover taped, to turn off the battery you place the magnet on the outside close to where the switch is. I have used these with my RC sailboats but not any nitro boats. We'll see how it works when the water becomes liquid again. The nice thing about this setup is that you don't have to drill a hole in the radio box for a switch.
