Ignition setup for DA 50
I've been searching the forum and trying to figure out the best way to setup ignition on my GP Wagstaff. I saw a post on the GP build and had some pics of the front firewall with ignition, but I couldn't tell what all of the components were. I know there is a battery, ignition module, regulator, and maybe one other thing I'm missing. Could someone point me in the right direction on how to set this up? Also, what kits are out there to set this up? This is my first gasser. Thanks

RE: Ignition setup for DA 50
No regulator unless your using Li-ion/li-poly packs..the module has a spark plug wire, a lead that connects to the engine pickup and a lead that goes to your switch/battery..you have to solder an end onto the lead that goes to your switch to match your system (JR Futaba etc)..

No picture yet but I soldered my sensor wires instead of using that little connector (seemed fragile). Also I didn't use DA's power connector for the ignition, I used a Dean's Ultra connector. They are much more heavy durty and make a great connection. DA says in their manual to simply tie wrap the ignition to a piece of foam and that's it. Pretty easy actually.
