Hello all,

Here are a couple of pics of what I have done so far. The CG issue seems to....well...not be an issue. The CG is about on as is without the radio gear installed. This gives me a ton of flexibility to get the CG right on.

Comments/criticism welcome!

Silly me

I used to have a set of planes to make your own electronic ignition, from turning your own coils, right up making you own PIC board, programs running on a 4.8 – 7.2 volts.

I think I must really have a look and try to find it again, I never used it as it was twice as heavy as a commercial one, but its half the weight of a magneto setup. And you can move the weight of the battery as the magneto’s weight is right upfront

Silly me,

Please look hard, I would be very interested in this info. I have a lot of gassers and in the true spad form not willing to pay in excess of 100.00 for a C&H ignition.

Hey I'm about half way done cutting out my 2x scale SPA3D with a 33cc out front. I am going to try to borrow a camera from school and get the flight on film. If anything it should be funny. 8lb plane wiht a engine putting out about 15lb of thrust I can't wait

i reckon that a nice lightweight aftermarket motorcycle ignition like the dyna-s might be the answer,they are very simple and cheap.
