Default RE: cordless drill as a starter?

Some car engines have a modification on the back plate to handle #6 hex rench. This is just like the hex on heli starter extensions. But, there is no real way or point to do this on an airplane when you could simply use a starter motor. A drill is not prefered on helicopters, just doesn't turn fast enough. But you can get away with it on cars.
