FEMA Onboard self starter for Zenoah G-62??

[Trumpetman]

I am looking at an onboard self start system for my Zenoah G-62. It is made by FEMA and sold in Canada through A&J Hobbies. Anybody out there with experience with this item? Pros? Cons (other than weight)?

Thats the idea! I'm looking for words of wisdom from anybody who has used this on board starter with the Zenoah G-62

Honestly, if we have to choke and prime it by hand like that, might as well flip start it too and save hundreds of $ and grams... just wondering. It's still impressive to see.

I am sure the choking and flipping is just because it is a cold engine. As far as that goes you can put the choke on a servo too. If it is something you really want for your plane just go ahead and buy it, you'll have a lot fo fun with it.
