Just find some slack in a wire going to the motor (hot or ground doesn't matter) and wrap 3 turns around a reed switch. Then connect the reed switch in series with a power source and indicator LED. The reed switch is made of glass and will break easily. It should not be stressed by the lead wires or while wrapping with turns of wire. Also, a heat-sink should be used if soldered because the switch will be damaged by heat.

Okay, figure out a way to substantially beef up support of the rod right and for about 1" away from the solder joint. If allowed to "wave in be breeze" it's going break at the solder joint and depart the airplane . . . if I recall your airplane configuration correctly, there may be risk of putting that piece of wire through the prop? A piece of Delrin, polycarbonate, etc cut drilled and mounted to supply support is recommended.

I will be modifying the wiring some when I get to that project Thanks Dick In a message dated 5/3/2010 7:26:59 A.M.
