Any who, this is the first time you'll see me get frustrated guys! Only because nothing is in the language of Troy! ARRRRRGGGGG!!!! Also, what are the metal wraps on the wires for? can i remove then?
Lol, calm down before you give yourself a coronary! Simple answer: the switch shuts off the internal controller circuitry. It does not shut off the FETs though so a small amount of current will slowly drain the main batteries. And yes, you need the switch on to drive.

The metal wraps? You mean the ferrite cores? Those are to inhibit RF interference I would assume (they block high frequencies).
