RE: Electric starter for 50cc engine ?
Well I think the point is well taken that electronic ignition gassers should start easily without an electric starter. However, I have my Miller/Dynatron in a plastic tool box with both batteries and tools for my plane assembly on top. It's just not that hard to carry it along with my transmitter case. I used this setup from day one on my DA 100 and while it may not be necessary, it gives me piece of mind knowing that it will start easily and safely every time. If you do a search on here, you'll find guys have been hit by electronic ignitions even wearing gloves and it hurt them pretty bad.
Its not that I don't understand how electronic ignition makes them easy to hand start, I just don't like taking chances with my hands.

To avoid flooding, I choke it then flip the prop about 5 times by hand with the ignition off. Then turn on the ignition and use the starter. It starts immediately every time. No choking is needed for restarts. I know most guys flip these electronic ignition engines but now thaty I have the Miller starter its easy to use.
