Thanks for the observation Craig,ill see what i can do but the plug wire is really not touching at all,it is a bit close to the cowl but not touching,it has about 1 to 2mms of clearance but i will pay close attention to that,the wire is just hanging since i haven't mounted the ignition just taped it into plase for all the cut outs to be done,i mounted the cowl just for the pictures and to see what els might need to be adjusted

take a look at this post,i was going to use a 7.4 volt lithium ion pack with a regulator to step down the voltage to 5 volts for the ignition but Geppino changed my mind,read his post here http://www.rcuniverse.com/forum/fb.asp?m=7831378 previews page,i wouldn't run 6 volts even regulated might damage the ignition since it is suposebly the highest voltage the ignition can handle,if you dont want to run lithiums then i would sugest a 4.8 pack but even the 4.8 pack can reach a higher than 6 volts fresh out of the charger
