I start my Homelight 30 with the regular Hobbico starter and the gelcell flight box battery. Never had any problem. The engine is standard compression. This starter will not turn over my Saito 150 though.

I do have the bigger Hobbico starter but it's not any better than the little one on a small battery. On a car battery it is good.

I also have Sullivan Dynatron but it is more of a lawn tractor battery or car battery starter. This Dynatron is much better quality and is bigger than the Great Planes and Horizon starters.

You can run 24 volts on the Hobbicos like you can on the Dynatron but just for short spurts.

Enjoy,

Jim
