Hello All,

I have a question regarding the DA ignitions vs DLE/EME/XYZ ect.. ignition boxes.

I've heard DA engines with DA hall sensors must have DA ignitions. Is this true?

Can you use a generic RC_Excell Ignition box on a DA if the hall sensor is replaced?

I did discover that an ignition box from a DA 60 works fine on a DA 85 because I successfully tried it this past weekend.


Thanks!

Sonny

People generally let DA repair their engines. Correct, the DA ignition is different from the CH and RCEXL style ignitions


But yes, you can put a CH or RCEXL style complete ignition on your DA and it will run just fine.

The sensor on a DA engine is a coil of wire where most other ignitions use a Hall sensor. Both systems work well, they're just different and will not interchange.

Those answers are correct.

I will add the hall sensor (C&H Rcxel & others type) is a switch (on & off), and the coil ( DA type) is a inductance reading a voltage change as the magnet passes

TMI ?
