<DIV>Actually I have a prototype Throttle-Tech from Tech Aero that provides an
external LED that is very bright, maybe not visible for a mile but very obvious,
if the battery is connected and the radio off. The LED also flashes a few times
then goes solid (dimmer) when the pack is connected – if it’s a discharged pack
the flashing continues. Not sure when these will be available, but in the
works.</DIV>

a contest management point of view unless the canopy is off the airplane (nobody
wants to leave the canopy off) and you do not have a plug you cannot tell if a
plane in the pits is safe. One thing I implemented at my
contest last weekend was a deadline beyond which you could not bring you plane
into the pits until it was disarmed. That seemed to work well
and no one objected. But back in the pits those without plugs
were still “invisible” as to status.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

challenges to follow a procedure .... Plane lands, flight is
complete. While a helper/ caller, perhaps unfamiliar with that
specific airplane, retrieves it from the runway, the pilot gets involved in a
conversation - how flight went, that he is needed to judge, to call for someone,
else, etc. Similar items may be pulling on the helper/caller. Plane
now sits where? For how long? And is disarmed? A clearly
visible arming plug would be a big help.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>

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.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P></DIV>
