im not sure what help you need? but, you can use an available RX channel to turn it on and off, but I would strongly suggest using a different power source then your flight battery…

I would also suggest shielding the magnotometer as good as you can to prevent interference.

basically, you might look into receiver switches… some have a built in relay, so you can use a different power source, hansenhobbies.com/products/o … rs/nersv2/

this uses a common ground, but you can bring a different battery .

good luck
