can I power an electronic ignition for a DLE 30 from the receiver? I will be using a 2s lipo for my rx power so I was planning on using a voltage regulator. Which kind would be best? Also if someone could comment on whether or not electronic noise entering the rx would be a problem that would be great.
Thanks for your help.
Take a look at Ed Alt's IBEC. Here's the link

This device goes between your RX and your CDI. It is a high end filter (practically eliminates RFI to the RX), has an optically isolated signal, has settable output voltage to the CDI, is a very safe CDI arming switch (on and off) from the TX, weighs around 2/3 oz with almost negligible voltage drop across it (saves the battery).
Will save the weight of the extra battery and switch (itself weighs very little) which should be desirable in 20cc and 30cc planes. However, the device is so convenient and safe, IMAC pilots use it on their 40% stuff.
