Well, I am going to chime in with my experience. I use the Arm-safe. I have over 1000+ flights on airplanes with this system and it has been bulletproof. I know there are thoughts about single points of failure etc etc. But here's my experience.. I have never
 seen an arming system fail, but I have seen countless airplanes go careening off into fences and fields because the pilot forgot to deactivate his/her airplane. I am entirely supportive of an arming rule that requires a hard disconnect of the airplane.</div>

@ anti-spark “reducing” points of failure.  Anti-spark circuitry is another component and it can fail.  So the potential failure point of carbon build up is exchanged for the potential failure of the anti-spark circuitry.  Carbon buildup is easy to spot and

To me the big thing is the *convenience* and *expediency* of disarming via an external plug.  Many canopies can be fussy about how they go on and off and, at a contest where we try to keep things moving quickly, especially when one plane has just landed and
 another is on approach it’s quick and easy for the caller to disarm the plane and carry it into the pits if there is an external device.  Without that, and in the hurry-up scenarios it is real easy for an armed plane to get carried into the pits.  </p>

Quite frankly though, it’s not going to happen until the top pilots start setting the example rather than being “part of the problem”.  They AREN’T a problem because they fly so much and have a regular caller who knows the routine and quickly disarms the plane,
 etc. but they need to set an example for the rest who DON’T have those advantages.  I get the “point of failure” concerns, and agree that things like the deans arming plug approach, etc. can introduce those. But an anti-spark external arming bullet, IMHO *reduces*
 points of failure by ensuring you get no carbon buildup on any battery/ESC connections.  </p>

The key is that you saw him doing that.  You could have told him.  If you didn't want to tell him you just could make aware of all around to watch out.   It is basic safety that has been proved in the industry.  Any power electric circuit has to have an external

 day.  A pilot came with an electric plane and parked between us.  He left it there and decided that he needs to go and get something.  About a minute later his plane came to live suddenly and took us from the pits.  It starting to do an small loop and was
 coming directly toward us.  It was so fast that my friend said "take cover". We were lucky that the plane crashed in front of us and there were no more pilots flying or around.  It was so fast that I didn't have time to move an inch and could have hit us easily. 
 The plane didn't have an arming switch outside so there was no way for us to know if was armed.  The owner came and we never were able to figure out what really happened.
