Hi Paul
I am pleased to report engine start on my RV7 project. It did no go
first time because a bad Mazda igniter put 12 volts on the trigger pin
and blew the A half of my Tracy computer.   To all Renesis
engine people, check the resistance from the 12 volt pin to the trigger
pin on your igniters it should be open circuit.
The 'spin' muffler sounds quiet on no load, lets hope its the same at w.o.t.
Two or three weeks before flight tests.

Has anybody had trouble with radio interference from Tracy's engine
monitor, and how did they fix it?

Happy flying

Hey great news Ian. Congradulations. I think you are
the second person to get an RX8 engine running.

Send pictures. How is Don coming along?
