Hi guys

I have problems to starter my Moki 180 with Hobbico torkmaster 180 starter.
Anyone has experience with the Sullivan Dynatron on 12 v or 24 v?
Sullivan Megatron too expensive!

Thanks for help

the prob. may not be your starter but your bat. some flight pack bat's don't have enugh amps to spin the larger motors if you have a motorcycle or rideing lawnmorer bat around try it

I couldn't start my OS 1.6 with a standard starter either. I'm getting into much bigger planes (and therefore) engines so I broke the old piggy bank open and got a Miller RC Persuader 4:1 geared reduction system on a Sullivan Dynatron hooked to either 12 or 24V. I don't have any problems now :cool:

The Moki should start fine by giving it a good priming then back flipping against the compression. My Moki 1.50, ST 2000 and 2500 all start fine this way.

I agree with bdtsr. Most bigger glow engines (smaller ones too) can usually be started with chicken stick without much effort.
