Default RE: Electronic Ignition Conversion on US 41cc????

Hi Everyone!

Thanks here for all the imputs.
You all agree that there is a weight reduction installing electronic ignition, and on power gain it will depend on adjusting the timing probably.
It is good to know though that the engine can improve and will save weight. I think it will be a plus to have the sychro type of electronic advancing module even though it is a bit more costly, it is still better than replacing the whole engine for better performance. I wish I knew all this a few years ago when I bought the engine and wanted to go into large scale planes. It took several years to actually get the plane ready. Maybe it will be a good idea to leave the engine to last in the next project...
Great flying to all
This weekend we had spetacular weather over here in Brazil and lots of fun too!
Thanks again
Cris
