        Actually that's perfect, since it will not be a kill switch but an "alive
switch" the motor will be kept alive as long as it receives a valid signal
from the second transmitter, that way if anything goes wrong with the first
receiver/transmitter pair all I have to do is shut off the second
transmitter. TTYL
