Gaseous IS TOTALLY CORRECT!
on a ship that has had 5 ring gears and starters from starting kickback
in less than 300 hrs ! and all long flights the time delayed switch is the fix or remote switch!! Has Robertson adressed this issue?? and as far as legal well i'll like to see a well dressed attourney in the remote wilderness of Alaska either at -40 in the winter our summer in a bug infested swamp waiting for me to get a starter that has busted our drive gear that need replaced!! its in the slick start as soon as power is dropped the primary points kick in if the engine is not turning over enough it will kick back
i think all you owners of R-44 with this starting system should write the factory i just work on fixed wing mostly but i think this needs to be adressed the owner of this R 44 has spent alot of money in Labor and parts and i know its not his starting technique! I see not one SB addressing this issue
