Default RE: Starting a plane

I mjust be pretty lucky, I have a 1.20 that I will put on my hell cat when I get my wings, anyway a freiend that drives rc cars was helping me start it up on the work bench, once we ran it for a min, we shut it off and took the glow start off (didn't want to lose a few fingers taking it off this beast), we made a few adjustments and turned the engine over slowly to prime it and took off with the start removed, my friend just about peed his pants when this happened. The start still wasn't on it even after a min. of tinkering, my friend wont even help me with it now. I dont know why though.

Lesson learned always treat an engine as if it will start[sm=biggrin.gif]
