seaking questions

I dislike either cutting the red wire or pulling the pins out of the plug on an expensive ESC like the T180. Instead , I connect it to the Rx with a very short extension cable (available in all sorts of lengths very cheaply for Futaba gear) and cut the red line on this. It leaves you with the option to still use the BEC facility if you use the ESC in another boat using less lipos cells (with the T180, the BEC should work quite happily with 4S-5S)

Great idea and I am ahead of you on this one. On my Spartan, you kinda have to becuase of the watertight rx box. I bought two extensions. One for the rx battery and another for the esc. That way I can program my sw180a and connect/disconnect my rx battery without having to remove the rx cover.
