Greetings,

In a youtube video I saw a pull starter attached to a heli (not TT).
Is there a pull starter suitable for TT, either as an attachment or as a standalone?

Was it a gas (petrol) heli by some chance, as they have pull starts!

It was a Trex 700, but not sure if a custom conversion was made.

I've never seen a pull-start nitro...or heard of one either.

OS 32 has a pull start option. The only problem I see with it on a 30 size model is the extra weight.

10.60 without

I don't get why you would want a pull starter?
I've been cheap for a period after my starter went bad, I didn't want to replace it, found a coordless drill works just as well.
Is there a pro to a pull starter?
Thanks!
