Default RE: newbie - please explain types of ignition?

To take ignition one step further, there are two types of electronic ignition. One uses an electronic automated advance mechanism such as the CH syncrospark. The other uses a mechanical advance through a rod from the carb likkage to a ring arond the prop shaft housing. Both types work well and both types are superior to a magneto ignition.

Get in touch with RCIGN1. He's supposed to have some really wonderful things with a G-62 and electronic ignition systems. He may or may not be marketing the set up, but if you're dead set on a G-62, he would be a good person to ask questions about the engine and systems.
