Default RE: Engine Kill...By choke servo or by ignition kill

Sure there will be some who think different on this... but I have heard atleast 5 times where that switch hasn't worked properly... in fact I know someone who had 3 of them shipped to them just to get one that worked properly.

The best option is the Smart-Fly Product... sure its a bit more money but it works.
Well that's good information to know. By the way was the failure related to not operating when turned off, or was it turning off the engine when not commanded to do so?

I have heard of problems with the Smart-Fly switch turning off the engine because of RMI generating a false signal from the transmitter. I believe Smart-Fly has taken care of that problem with some type of filter or delay circuit. Does anyone out there knows more about this issue?
