Any tips for starting a Rotax 912/914 in sub-zero conditions? My 914 is always fairly reluctant to start in those conditions and needs a tip-top battery to do so, not something I can guarantee in winter where weather can sometimes mean a 2+ week pause between flights. Is a fan heater to the cowling a good solution?
