However later that evening I was playing with my TX and I kid you not I heard the starter motor enagage on the turbine for a second of so. To re-iterate the RX was NOT on when it did this! I was completely amazed at this behaviour as it was the first time I have ever seen this. The turbine didn't start thank god, only the started motor engaged as explained.
Hi Geoff
I bet you were surprised! I can almost understand that behaviour with the new ECU's having the cool down facility - but mine is an older version without such luxuries. Anyone out there still operating the older ECU's, if the Rx is off can you confirm you get no lights or beeps from the ECU? This was what surprised me. With Rx power off, all three LED's were on, and it sounded a little like the fuel/gas solenoid valves were operating in a random fashion.
