For the EC120, the RFM says crank if T4 is >150 (EC120 is not fadec). There is nothing in the B3 RFM to crank prior to start - it is not needed. I've started the B3 within 30 seconds of shutting down (yes, even on a hot day & even numerous occasions of tailwinds during start), the FADEC takes care of everything. What you have to do if it starts to go hot (ie: caused by the FADEC having a glitch vs. T4 hot prior to start), is shut off the start switch. That is why you should hold onto that switch during start.
