    Yes, we've had this conversation on Eddie's thread. I'll be using a start timer and won't have a start power switch at all but I think I prefer Ross' idea of using an on/off switch instead of having to keep holding the switch, while you're pressing the start button and potentially adjusting the throttle. The only disadvantage is that you then have to remember to turn off the switch after start but that's hardly onerous. An on/off/on switch would fit the bill but I'm certainly not in any position to muck up anyone's thinking when my machine is still on paper It is a shame that KF don't have a switch to match the others and do the job but, as I said before, I don't think they'd have a high enough current rating for the 20A required by Rotax.

    I've slept multiple times since the start switch topic came up and completely forgot about it.

    Be aware that the FAA just changed the required wording for the passenger warning. EAA says they will be coming out with new decals. Sorry I do not recall at the moment what the FAA document is that contains the working.
