Default "blinged out" gas engine heavy duty starter

Hey guys. Here is what we have been working on for a while.. I usually flip my engines but sometimes you ever wish you had a starter? Got a ZDZ?? This thing is cool.. It is in two versions..

Version one with just a starter.. This thing has a heavy brush motor, 6 to 1 belt reduction, two switches(upright and side switch), and the frame is made of CNC milled carbon fiber, and has alligator clips to attach to a 12 volt battery

Version 2 has our exclusive TDRC 4 cell a123 battery pack and it makes this starter more portable and still light weight to carry around. No need to carry a heavy gell cell field battery. it will start a flooded 50cc engine and fixing to test on an 80cc.. On a 5 cell lipo I think it would start a 100cc!!
Just thought I would share this as I think there gonna be great..PS sorry for the crappy pics. Took them with my smart phone. Plane to get some better ones..

Now, this is a Fantastic gadget! I do like to flip my engines by hand, but a good portable finger saver is always welcome!

I am not a fan of electric starters...but that one sure looks worth getting! You know the more I look at that starter..it looks like it is off a small ATV or motorcycle. The0-ring is still on the part that attaches to a engine. Just remove the starter gear and add cone. Then the rest is easy!!! Thanks, Capt,n

Its under gas engines and gas engine accessories. Hover you mouse cursor over products and you will see sub-cataglories

I think that this is a little high on the price side if you go to SDS hobbies you can get the same starter for $40!!!!!!!! plus postage.

Oh yes i do have one and it starts my 3w 85 with a large lipo.no problem.
The on /off switches are a bit dodgy but easily replaced

How about a Bendix type starter, if you can afford the extra weight?
