The standard switching sequence for our tanks is:
 
1: transmitter
2: receiver
3: controller
4: motors
 
Right?
 
Would there be a problem when step 2,3 and 4 are switched on or off at the same moment, let's say by relays?
I'm thinking of installing one small kill switch on the outside of the tank that not only switches the motor current but the rest as well. I thought this would help when, in the heat of the battle, one has to change tx batteries and don't wants to take covers of the tank to switch off the rest of the system.
I'm using a 70 amp relay to switch the motor current, and some smaller relays for rx, controller and cooling fans.
 
Any thoughts on this?
