I reallly like the FADEC you can adjust everything and you have control over your affairs. Much like the old air start days. The inability to SPOOL a starter motor is a concern for me. That was my big setback with my simjet. It caught on fire once and it was at least 2 seconds before the starter figured out it needed to run.

I personally loved air start just for this reason but some ecus have the ability to run the starter and thus accomplish the same effect.

I have an idea for some of the ecus that do not have the option. I know on a semi-auto ecu it will work and i dont see why not on a full auto. Just divert your starter wires to a Rocker switch mounted in the plane and a battery. YOU contol the starter moter then at anytime you desire. Russ
