Default Model Avionics AutoGlow
I received my Model Avionics AutoGlow unit on Friday. It looks something...or actually like this:



It makes a glow starter obsolete and works with my Throttle Jockey Pro to give power to the glow plug if the headspeed drops 100 RPM. Cool huh???

I am hoping to get time to install it tonight.

I will Sluggo. It is not installed yet, to busy hacking away at this board for now. I will provide feedback and Paul is one of our first advertisers. Thanks Paul!!

What we would really like to see is this forum become a support forum for Model Avionics Products Officially. It would be great.

I have been running the autoglow for a while now.

I am very pleased with the operation, use, and performance.

very easy to set-up and works great.

You just have to get used to the awkwardness of starting your heli without a remote glow ignitor!!!

I will be installing it soon. I have to change the end that hooks on the glow plug becauae it will not fit in the R90 Fan shroud with the extra piece installed and a Viper Twin Plug Head on my C-SPEC PS. Dave Thacker at RadicalRC has the twist lock kind I have been using on the Raptor I crashed Saturday and I like it very well. Should solder right on in 1 minute and I'm good to go.

Now just got to make time to do it.
