Default RE: New CDI - opensource project JMJ and Bigboat

Most CDI's for modelengines can handle ~10,000rpm, not more.
The modelengines we use, weedeathers - jigsaws - aso, aren't make for high rpm and have a low powerband.
If you buy a race engine like Zenoah, they run more then 15,000rpm and have there own CDI.
This CDI's are not programmable, they use the wonders of nature magnetism to delay the spark.
