|
|
Has anyone with a Firestar II installed an electric start on their aircraft? There does not appear to be enough room for the electric start. I'm trying to keep my Ballistic shute *BRS* model 750 & the starter. It also appears the engine case needs to be modifed to allow all the parts to fit. There was no instructions with my starter so I'm trying to figure it out as I go along.

You could put an E drive on it which has the starter installed with (beside) the gearbox.
See what's free at AOL.com.

I've had several folks tell me the GPL starter is the way to go. It has the starter sitting sideways instead of straight back like my Rotax starter.
