Hey guys... Does anyone make a compact, one piece starter and battery combo with a 1.5 glow wire hook up? Just curious....
Should someone market one??

Never seen one. Personally, I'd be leary of something like that. I'm not sure about having a wire run from in front of the prop to the glow plug. Seems like it wouldn't be too hard to get it into the prop.

Say what? you mean having a wire running from your self contained starter, that wire is the glow plug wire? Keep those two items separate. Use a Radio South glow driver, Koonie Glow Driver from Harold Satler, a McDaniels glow stick thing.

you guys are right, guess you can tell I've never been on the starting line. Maybe just a place to plug in your Glow starter to keep it hot charged would work. I like the idea of a one piece starter and battery however....

I like the RCATS glow driver, kinda spendy, but I haven't charged it since Winterfest in January :)

I am using your basic sullivan starter with the battery pack. I don't like to be without juice at a race, so I filled it with 12-3300 mah NIMH cells. Works real well, but kinda an expensive set up.

That reminds me of a funny story, After we raced on Saturday in Ft Lauderdale this year, I decided to charge the starter above off of the rental car battery through my triton charger so I would be in good shape for Sunday.

Needless to say, the car battery was dead when it was time to leave :)
