Happy to report the starter is now operational.
Programmed the ESC last night.Switch function for 3 position switch on AUX 7:

S0 - opto kill switch off, relays off, ESC off
S1 - opto kill switch is on, relays are on, ESC initialises and arms. ESC sees a "throttle STOP" signal. Lipo is connected to the ESC
S2 - as above but now ESC sees a throttle "FULL" signal and the motor is driven to full power to engage the engine for starting

Finally switch is put back to S0 which dis-arms the ESC and isolates the Lipo from the ESC cct.

I recorded the test run to test the starter functions, ignition is off.

cheers
Peter
