12FG Owners - Ignition Cutoff Switch assignment

[DR10044]

Getting ready to install Smart-Fly's Ignition Cutoff in my AW Yak. I am using my 12FG 2.4 for the first time. I am curious as to which switch other pilots use for the ignition cutoff? Pro's and Con's?

I got into the habit of always using the landing gear switch for the ignition cutoff switch. Pull it toward the pilot for off and down toward the ground for on. It's a simple non proportional switch - it's either on or off. You can use the ATV to adjust the end points.

I use the snap switch.
Just in case I accidentally bump it, It wont flip off on me.
If I remember right, you have to adjust the trim on the switch from full pos to full neg.
The way it comes from the factory, Normal position for the snap switch is off.

I also use the trainer switch.

That's exactly the way I set the Smart-Fly cutoff up last night. This is the first time I have used a Smart-Fly cutoff. It was so easy to install. Plus you get the cool LED that I installed right above the ignition switch. Thanks to all.
