Well the new rule does specify that the master shut off can not be located under the wing or parachute mount so there is that


"The electrical power cutoff switch must be placed in such a manner as to give a safety official an unobstructed view of the mechanism from the rear of the vehicle."

Then later refers to it installed on the bumper & that would put it under the wing.

I don't really care because I have no wing, but it's confusing about the parachute also.

My contrasting color sticker is only 2" or 2.5" dia.; I'll have to use the other sticker also.

I think what they mean is directly under the wing where it can fold over and block the switch on a crash. I saw a bunch this past weekend that would not pass the new spec, both just below the wing and also behind the chute mount. I have a wing and my cut off is just above the bumper, The wing could fold over and not block the switch
