I'm using a DX8, but I don't think the Tx type matters. I did a forum search and didn't come up with anything. I'm looking to make the switches I use often easier to identify while flying by putting a cover of some sort over them. I'm just wondering what kinds of things can be used to fit over the switches. And, if possible, I'd like to see a couple of pictures. Thanks.

I use a piece of fuel tubing on my common switches.

How about shrink wrap? You can get it real cheap from China, with free postage.

Good idea. Thanks!! I had some blue fuel tubing kicking around, cut it to fit, works great and doesn't look too bad either.
