You can do whatever you think is best but...If an IFI rep or another smart individual can't see the panel when you are having a problem, they won't be able to help. It is wise to cover the RC but when things start acting up, you want to be able to get some feedback and see that all the PWM connectors and sensor are still connected. When you are 30 seconds from the start of a match and are on the field with your alliance waiting for you, do you want to be removing a big metal cover?
As an inspector, I will agree with Mr. Tedrow, we need to see to help you.
