Default RE: Can't start my engine on new NexSTAR

SUCCESS! Thanks everyone for all the help. I took the wings off and took the fuselage with me to work yesterday. A friend of mine brought his kit in and we started it up. It started fine with his glow plug ignitor and electric starter. Then we stuck a glowplug in my ignitor and it glowed bright red. I went by Hobbytown USA after work and bought an Tourqemaster electric starter. It ran about $35 but I didn't want to order one and wait another week or so to be able to run my engine. I got home and got it starter up myself. Problem is, when I first tried to start it with my new electric starter, the rubber part in the end of the starter ate my nose cone up because it would not turn it over at first. Now I need to figure out what nose cone I need to order!
