So how did you mount the switches? Chord-wise or lengthwise?

They have to be mounted lengthwise with the wire side pointing outward.

Experience is something you gain only after you need it.
I wouldn't mind social media so much if it didn't involve people.

You could always de-solder them from a set of these:

If I read the eBay listing right, those are omni-directional switches intended for detecting vibration, which means your LEDs would probably be flickering all the way out to the flight station.

Yep, but they would stay on when you spooled up. And they're cheep.

And they'd stay on during transport unless you use another switch.
