If the initial power is only going to the Rx and Flight System via the JST when the main battery is connected, why is a switch needed? Assume you could just remove the switch from the circuit.
@schooner2000 That's true but it's important that, when you put power to the Flight Stabilization System, the aircraft remain perfectly still and level while the program in the Arduino boots and benchmarks the sebsors or you will get incorrect readings. I have found that adding the switch allows you to power up without moving the aircraft during this important step.
@CrashHancock Ah good point, that way you cna be sure it is stable before it starts up. I'm use to my GAUI 330X where it all powers up at once. Too bad the WiiCopter setup doesn't have a built in delay circuit of some sort.

Excellent video Crash, well done, you make it look so easy I just might make one ;-)
