If you don't want to pay $30 for that controller, it's easy to rig up a system using a switch and an SPDT relay that will cost you all of $5. That's what I did since when I bought mine they had not release the controller yet.

Cheers to the OP for the nice write up!
hi, can you post a wiring diagram of your controller relay for the electric starter and where i can buy that relay.Thanks!!!!!!
