What are most people doing who still fly YS CDI in relation to powering the CDI unit. Are you using a seperate battery pack or do you share between CDI and flight control systems? I have seen a number of threads about this topic but they are all a little out of date.
6 years ago I was using a 2500maH Lithium Ion battery with a Jerrico regulator and futaba switch. I have just purchased a new Lithium Ion battery but would like suggestions about the rest of the power system should I decide to use a YS CDI equipped engine.
Thx

Tech Aero IBEC information in other threads is still good today and applies. I am now running gasoline ignition power stuff in pattern and all of my planes are IBEC equipped. The convenience of it of not having to bend and reach behind a spinning prop to turn some switch off is enough justification. But you get several other benefits as well
